Neanderthals buried their dead, new study suggests

The video discusses the analysis of a Neanderthal child's remains, suggesting the child was buried by its tribe, shedding light on Neanderthal burial practices. Initially, there was skepticism about the authenticity of such burial sites due to early 20th-century excavation methods. However, recent re-examinations and radiocarbon dating of the remains from the La Ferrasi site in France provide evidence of a deliberate burial 41,000 years ago, indicating that funerary practices were not unique to modern humans.
