How did Neanderthals disappear? New DNA analysis sheds light on the mystery

The discovery of interbreeding between early humans and Neanderthals has had a significant impact on modern people, influencing various aspects of their lives. While scientists have found it challenging to understand how intermingling shaped Neanderthals, a new study using new techniques is providing insights. The study reveals that humans and Neanderthals exchanged DNA multiple times over the past 250,000 years, shedding light on the disappearance of Neanderthals and potentially changing the narrative of human migration out of Africa. The findings suggest a complex early human history and frequent interactions with Neanderthals.
