Resumen de First known Neanderthal burial rituals
Burning through the darkness, the fires would have lit up the cave around where the young child lay. The remains of a series of small tires discovered within a dolomite hillside 93 kilometers north of Madrid Spain, could be the first firm evidence that Neanderthals held funerals. The blackened hearths surround a spot where the Jaw and six teeth of a Neanderthal toddler were found in the stony sediment. Puzzingly, within each of these hearths was the horn or antler of a herbivore, apparently carefully placed there. In total, there were 30 horns from aurochs and bison as well as red deer antlers, and a rhino skull nearby.
