"The transition from Neanderthals to modern humans in Europe occurred during a period of recurring cold climate cycles. In a new study, a team of researchers from Germany, Austria, Romania, the United States and the United Kingdom examined climate records from Carpathian stalagmites covering a period from 44,000 to 40,000 years ago, and compared the data to archaeological records of Neanderthal artifacts. They found that archaeological layers devoid of Neanderthal tools occurred at around the same time as cold periods. The findings appear in the Proceedings of the Natural Academy of Sciences. Neanderthals were skilled hunters and had learned how to control fire, but they had a less diverse diet than modern humans, living largely on meat from the animals they had successfully pursued. These food sources would naturally become scarce during colder periods, making Neanderthals more vulnerable to rapid environmental change…."
