The Neanderthals cared for the wounded and the elderly
Explanation:
- On their own, most wild animals would be unlikely to survive broken bones or the loss of teeth.
- For this Neanderthal man, the fact that these injuries were not lethal is strong evidence that other members of his family or group took care of him at various times.
- This is one of the earliest indicators of the development of a complex social structure in our hominid ancestors.
