The Original Genocide

A new study in the Journal of Anthropological Sciences by a man named Fernando Rozzi suggests that “Neanderthals met a violent end at our hands and in some cases we ate them”.

Rozzi’s team found a Neanderthal jawbone in amongst human bones with cut marks on it similar to those found on deer and other animal bones which have been stripped of flesh.

“Rozzi believes the jawbone provides crucial evidence that humans attacked Neanderthals, and sometimes killed them, bringing back their bodies to caves to eat or to use their skulls or teeth as trophies,” said the New Zealand Herald.
