In 1856, remnants of the cranial bone and other skeletal parts of a primitive human species were found in the Neandertal near Dusseldorf, which was then named after the site "Neanderthals". The message was a world sensation. Comparison with other fossil-like fossil finds showed that Neanderthals lived from about 130,000 years ago to about 30,000 years ago. But they were not direct ancestors of modern man (Homo sapiens), but a parallel, independent human species. Her body was built stronger than today's man. Neanderthals lived in communities and used tools and hunting weapons. Why they died out is unknown today.
