The Washington Post: Evidence increases that Neanderthals more closely linked to humans
The Washington Post has noted the Neanderthal research of SMU archaeology graduate student Metin I. Eren in a new article "Neanderthals reimagined" that looks out the changing scientific interpretation of humans ancestors.
Reporter Marc Kaufman in the Oct. 5 article Neanderthals reimagined cites Eren's 2007 research as some of the scientific evidence showing Neanderthals were smarter than once thought, and more like sisters and brothers to modern humans, rather than cousins, as previously perceived.
