It came to the levant later because the ancestors of aurignacion entered europe from central asia. Gravettian may have even been a neasnderthal culture, after all.Joe Lyonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07853388386082915414noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7785493.post-30258954059991666962014-07-27T09:14:32.614+03:002014-07-27T09:14:32.614+03:00They find one site that's 45,000 years old and...They find one site that's 45,000 years old and so were supposed to automatically change the date of the 21,000 k neanderthals on gibalter, too? Should we change the ibero-maurusians from across the chanel from 12,000 to 40,000 or so, too? Someone might remember that they have neanderthal features....Joe Lyonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07853388386082915414noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7785493.post-7962347534714636732014-07-25T00:08:55.076+03:002014-07-25T00:08:55.076+03:00The Aurignacian culture is associate with modern h...The Aurignacian culture is associate with modern humans, but was certainly not the first modern human culture.<br /><br />You are correct, however, that Iberia was not the last refuge for the Neanderthal. The youngest evidence of Neanderthals is in Vindija Cave in Croatia. andrewhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08172964121659914379noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7785493.post-14782554411579228932014-07-18T03:29:08.712+03:002014-07-18T03:29:08.712+03:00Iberia could not have been the last refuge for Nea...Iberia could not have been the last refuge for Neanderthal, because the Aurignacian culture began in Iberia and does not spread into the Levant until 32kya. This means that the presence of Neanderthal in Iberia 42kya is consistent with the entrance of the Aurignacians across the Straits of Gibraltar from Africa around this time.Dr. Clyde Wintershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01153945762719431061noreply@blogger.com
