Model Reveals Rarity of Encounters Between Neanderthals and Modern Humans

A sophisticated simulation has traced the fateful collision of two human species across ancient Iberia, showing that Neanderthals were already in decline when modern humans arrived, and their chances of interbreeding were remarkably slim. Researchers at the University of Cologne have developed a sophisticated dynamic model that reconstructs the population movements, settlement patterns, and potential interactions between Neanderthals and anatomically modern humans during a pivotal period between 50,000 and 38,000 years ago. The study challenges long-held assumptions about how these two groups coexisted and whether significant mixing occurred on the Iberian Peninsula.
- Modern Humans and Neanderthals Lived Together in Europe for Over 2,000 Years
- Why Did Modern Humans Replace the Neanderthals?
Neanderthals Confined to Coastal Refuges
The research team, led by Professor Yaping Shao from the Institute of Geophysics and Meteorology and Professor Gerd-Christian Weniger from the Department of Prehistoric Archaeology, created what they call the OW-CABM (Our Way Constrained Agent-Based Model). This innovative approach combines climate data, archaeological evidence, and population dynamics to simulate how Neanderthals moved across the landscape.
