Two articles? edit

I've noticed that this article adds little to Abrigo do Lagar Velho. Though I believe there may be reason to keep two different articles, I'm not convinced that the current amount of additional information of this picture, is sufficient to sustain two articles. I hope someone has additional information, though. This may be interesting. Andreas Willow (talk) 17:52, 26 November 2008 (UTC)Reply

Copy and Paste edit

The text of this article has been copied from [1], or vice-versa - I looks like it´s imposible to know how old is the article in nationmaster.com. By the way, the Abrigo do Lagar Velho article is identical to [2]. Catuireal (talk) 19:48, 1 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

Nevermind, I realised nationmaster.com is a Wikipedia mirror, see Wikipedia:Mirrors and forks/Mno —Preceding unsigned comment added by Catuireal (talkcontribs) 19:58, 1 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

This page needs edit

Who found the body? Has anything been written about this by a scientist in the last 10 years? Nitpyck (talk) 20:31, 30 April 2009 (UTC)Reply

does not reveal Neanderthal affinities. edit

http://www.forschungsportal.ch/unizh/p3650.htm Universität Zürich The project leader was Prof. Dr. C.P.E. Zollikofer The early upper paleolithic (Gravettian) burial site of Lagar Velho (near Lapedo, Portugal) yielded a well-preserved child skeleton, whose possible skeletal affinites with Neanderthals are the subject of a controversial scientific debate. The reconstruction and detailed comparative analysis of the burial context and the child’s morphology are important prerequisites for further studies regarding the physical and cultural status of this individual. Research on the Lagar Velho child is carried out by an international and interdisciplinaryresearch team (Instituto Português de Arqueologia; Washington University, St. Louis; University of Zurich, and others). During computer-assisted reconstruction of the skull the severely fragmented and dispersed cranial remains were assembled, and plastic deformation caused by taphonomic compression of the cranial vault was corrected. Taking into account several reconstruction variants, a comparative geometric-morphometric analysis of the Lagar Velho cranium clusters this individual with modern human children of age 3 to 4 and does not reveal Neanderthal affinities. This project is supported by the L.S.B. Leakey foundation.

In the meantime we know that humans interbred with Neanderthals. Non-African humans have 1-4% Neanderthal genome. It would be unsurprising to find a 50-50 hybrid fossil. Has the evidence been reassessed in that context? --88.73.158.92 (talk) 21:07, 24 September 2011 (UTC)Reply

Interbred with humans? Neanderthals *were* humans. And considering we are are all part Neanderthal, that should be Neanderthals *are* humans.2.27.57.177 (talk) 12:07, 24 July 2015 (UTC)Reply
