Neanderthal Man of La Chapelle-aux-Saints

The Neanderthal man of La Chapelle-aux-Saints, Dordogne. The La Chapelle-aux-Saints cave in France revealed many archeological artifacts belonging to the late Mousterian culture, including the first ever recognized Neanderthal burial, discovered on August 3, 1908. Jean and Amédée Bouyssonie, as well as L. Bardon, led archaeological digs in the cave from 1905 to 1908, discovering over 1,000 pieces of flint, bones of different fauna including reindeer, bovid, horse, fox, wolf, and even a rhinoceros' tooth. The most spectacular discovery was that of a very well preserved skeleton of an adult Neanderthal man who appears to have been intentionally buried in a rectangular pit 30 centimeters deep, 1.45 meters long and 1 meter wide.
