Drawing upon the most recent scientific discoveries, this souvenir catalogue takes a new look at this species of the genus Homo. It features, exceptional fossils rarely shown to the public outside Europe. Neanderthals were great hunters, worked stone, mastered the use of fire and buried their dead.
