Were Neanderthals neurodiverse? Part 1/2 - Ep 01

This is the first of two episodes on neurodiversity in Neanderthals with Dr Andy Shuttleworth, who is an honorary fellow at the department of Anthropology at Durham university.

In this episode Andy talks about Neanderthals; where they lived, how they survived so long` and what their world was like. Long gone are the days of viewing Neanderthals, our nearest and dearest relatives, as simple cave-dwelling ancestors. Not only did Neanderthals survive incredibly challenging environments for hundreds of thousands of years, but they displayed signs of neurodiversity such as survival strategies, creativity, symbolism and may even have passed on autism to those of European decent.
