Original: A Wooden Club and Other Rare Finds Reveal 'Invisible' Side of Neanderthal Life https://gizmodo.com/a-wooden-club-and-oth
Archaeologists have reported the discovery of a wooden club and other rarely preserved artifacts, offering a glimpse into the everyday, organic-material side of Neanderthal life that stone tools alone cannot show. Wooden objects almost never survive in the archaeological record, so the find is drawing attention for revealing how Neanderthals crafted and used perishable tools.
Why now: New archaeological discoveries about Neanderthals are rare and capture broad public interest in human origins.
