Kindred: Neanderthal Life, Love, Death and Art

This book challenges the cliché of the shivering ragged figure in an ice wasteland to reveal the complex and fascinating true story of the Neanderthal. Author and Neanderthal expert Rebecca Wragg Sykes sheds new light on their habitat, diet, and culture. Despite their discovery 150 years ago, Neanderthals have transformed from losers to A-list humanoids. However, despite scientific curiosity and media coverage, the reality of 21st-century Neanderthals remains largely unknown. Based on the author’s firsthand experience in Paleolithic research, this book provides the first comprehensive picture of Neanderthals, from groundbreaking discoveries to enduring mysteries and their relationship with modern humans.
