  • 'Golden Years' of Neanderthal Research Reopen the Question of Human Uniqueness
    HPLS (2020) 42:33 https://doi.org/10.1007/s40656-020-00327-w ORIGINAL PAPER Neanderthals as familiar strangers and the human spark: How the ‘golden years’ of Neanderthal research reopen the question of human uniqueness Susan Peeters1,2 · Hub Zwart2 Received: 11 October 2019 / Accepted: 9 July 2020 © The Author(s) 2020 Abstract During the past decades, our image of Homo neanderthalensis has changed dramatically. Initially, Neanderthals were seen as primitive brutes. Increas- ingly, however, Neanderthals are regarded as basically human. New discoveries and technologies have led to an avalanche of data, and as a result of that it becomes increasingly difcult to pinpoint what the diference between modern humans and Neanderthals really is. And yet, the persistent quest for a minimal diference which separates them from us is still noticeable in Neanderthal research. Neanderthal dis- course is a vantage point from which the logic of ‘us’ versus ‘other’ is critically reconsidered. Studying contemporary academic literature and science autobiogra- phies from an oblique perspective, focusing not on Neanderthals as objects, but on the dynamics of interaction between Neanderthal researchers and their fnds, basic convictions at work in this type of research are retrieved. What is at issue is not the actual distinction between modern humans and Neanderthals (which is continuously being redefned), but rather the dualistic construction of human and nonhuman. Neanderthal understanding is afected by the desire to safeguard human unique- ness. The overall trend is to identify the human mark or spark, which defnes us as favoured ‘winners’. The paradoxes emerging in contemporary Neanderthal discourse are symptomatic of the fact that a dualistic style of thinking is no longer tenable.

The same holds true of the snapshot this book presents. The programmes across the breadth of universities in the Netherlands. It is a work in progress – super lative research currently being performed traces its roots back to investments in people ongoing research that builds on the solid foundations laid over the preceding decades, and facilities made years ago. We would like to maintain that standard in the future. Achieving which the univer sities are maintaining and developing further. that goal will require renewed investment in people and facilities – and they need to be comparable to the investments being made by our international competitors. We are far from There are good reasons for the support of world class research. This is the best way for modern confident that this is the case. Time after time, the Netherlands has been shown to lag behind societies to progress and compete in the global economic markets. The Netherlands should be the leading countries in Europe.

    COMMUNICATING THE PAST IN THE DIGITAL AGE | SEBASTIAN HAGENEUER (ED.) IN THE DIGITAL THE PAST COMMUNICATING Recent developments in the field of archaeology are not only progressing archaeological fieldwork but also changing the way we practise and present archaeology today. As these digital technologies are being used more and more every day on excavations or in museums, this also means that we must change the way we approach teaching Edited by and communicating archaeology as a discipline. The communication Sebastian Hageneuer of archaeology is an often neglected but ever more important part of the profession. Instead of traditional lectures and museum displays, we can interact with the past in various ways. Students of archaeology today need to learn and understand these technologies, but can on the other hand also profit from them in creative ways of teaching and learning. The same holds true for visitors to a museum. This volume presents the outcome of a two-day international symposium on digital methods in teaching and learning in archaeology held at the University of Cologne in October 2018 addressing exactly COMMUNICATING THE PAST this topic. Specialists from around the world share their views on the newest developments in the field of archaeology and the way we teach IN THE DIGITAL AGE these with the help of archaeogaming, augmented and virtual reality, 3D reconstruction and many more. Thirteen chapters cover different approaches to teaching and learning archaeology in universities and museums and offer insights into modern-day ways to communicate the past in a digital age.

On the character of Neandertal occupation of northern environments Jean-Jacques Hublin a,∗, Wil Roebroeks b a Department of Human Evolution, Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology, Deutscher Platz 6, 04103 Leipzig, Germany b Leiden University, Faculty of Archaeology, P.O. Box 9515, 2300RA Leiden, The Netherlands Received 26 October 2008; accepted after revision 7 April 2009 Presented by Yves Coppens Abstract In the course of the last 500,000 years, the Neandertal lineage was the first human group to extensively colonize the middle latitudes of western Eurasia up to 55◦ N. Although Neandertals were able to adapt to a variety of environments, their ability to cope with extreme glacial environments seems to have been very limited. Depending on the climatic cycles, their presence in the northern environments was essentially discontinuous. The periodical abandonment of some areas is generally interpreted as resulting in a movement of northern populations into southern refuges and a subsequent recolonisation of the northern regions. Here, we argue that the current palaeo-ecological, archaeological and palaeogenetic evidence supports a model of local extinctions rather than a habitat tracking model. To cite this article: J.-J.
