The Surprisingly Rich Emotional and Mental Lives of Neanderthals

Neanderthals were so much more than the knuckle-dragging brutes popular history makes them out to be. Paleolithic archaeologist Rebecca Wragg Sykes presents a new narrative based on DNA and mounting archeological evidence about the rich lives, emotions, and experiences of these 125,000-year-old cousins of our species. Guest: Rebecca Wragg Sykes, archaeologist and Honorary Fellow at the Universities of Liverpool and Bordeaux, and author of "Kindred: Neanderthal Life, Love, Death and Art"
