Prepared neanderthal bones for DNA extraction

MODEL RELEASED. Neanderthal genetics. Technician prepares a sample of bone from a fossil of a Neanderthal human, Homo sapiens neanderthalis, for an analysis of its DNA genetic material. Neanderthals were early humans who lived in Europe and the Middle East from 100, 000 to 30, 000 years ago. Compared to modern humans, Neanderthals had a relatively large face with a sloping forehead, brow ridge and no chin. It has been suggested that Neanderthals were the ancestors of modern Europeans. Comparisons of DNA extracted from Neanderthal fossils with modern DNA have shown that this is unlikely. Photographed in Svante Paabos laboratory at Munich University, Germany

EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, a skilled technician delicately prepares neanderthal bones for DNA extraction. The model released image showcases the fascinating world of neanderthal genetics, shedding light on our ancient human ancestors. The bone sample being handled belongs to Homo sapiens neanderthalis, an early human species that thrived in Europe and the Middle East between 100,000 to 30,000 years ago. Neanderthals possessed distinct physical features such as a prominent brow ridge, sloping forehead, and lack of chin when compared to modern humans. Contrary to popular belief that Neanderthals were direct ancestors of Europeans, scientific research using DNA extracted from their fossils has disproven this hypothesis. This groundbreaking analysis takes place within Svante Paabo's laboratory at Munich University in Germany. Anthropology enthusiasts will find themselves captivated by this snapshot from the world of paleontology and paleoanthropology. It serves as a reminder of how far we have come in unraveling the mysteries surrounding human origins through genetic testing and DNA analysis. This photograph is courtesy of Science Photo Library and offers a glimpse into the remarkable work conducted within Svante Paabo's laboratory without mentioning any commercial use or affiliation with specific companies.
