Neanderthal and a modern human

Filed under: Diary,Family,Not extinct — John Allen @ 11:27 am

A recent item on BBC News is headed Face of 75,000-year-old Neanderthal woman revealed

“Revealed” seems to imply “for the first time”.

Not so. There is a superb Neanderthal Museum in Mettmann, Germany.

Impressed?

I know I am. “Impressed” doesn’t cover it. “In awe” would be better.

What fine humans.

On March 24th.

Maya

A sister for Aaron. A daughter for Sarah.

It is surely something totally wonderful when your daughter has her own daughter.  Especially for her mother.
