After lying in the ground for 75,000 years, Shanidar Z was unearthed five years ago by researchers @cambridgeuniversity in a re-excavation of a legendary archaeological site, the Shanidar cave in Kurdistan. She appears to have been deliberately interred in the ground along with a cluster of 9 other Neanderthal men, women and children. ⁠
⁠
Discoveries from Shanidar cave in the 1950s and 60s transformed our understanding of Neanderthals, revealing that these ancient hominins cared for the injured and the dead. With today’s forensic technologies, Shanidar Z is the key to unlocking the secrets of this Neanderthal group.
