Tess Lambert · Answer 1

The correct answer is d. all of the above

Explanation:

Neandertal are the extinct species of humans who were present on earth 40,000 years ago. They were good hunters and were knowing the technique of making tools for hunting. The wooden spears and stoned tipped smear were found whose dating showed that they are from the time when Neandertal was alive.

Deer bones are found from the Mousterian site in Germany out of which two were perforated which shows that spear was used to kill them. Evidence base on isotope study showed that the difference in diet between Neandertal and modern humans are not much variable. So the right answer is d.
