Cro Magnon Man Differs From Neanderthal Man In Having

Gregory 1921 proposed the subspecies name homo sapiens cro.

Cro magnon man differs from neanderthal man in having. Neanderthal limbs were not only more mas sive than cro magnon ones they had differ ent proportions. Neanderthal derived dna was found in the genome of all contemporary populations varying slightly by region. Recent studies have shown the first cro magnon homo sapiens held a numerical superiority of 101 over neanderthal when they met in europe 45000 years ago. Unlike neanderthals cro magnons are not a separate species from homo sapiens.

The introgression events into modern humans are estimated to have happened about 4700065000 years ago with neanderthals and about 4400054000 years ago with denisovans. The term eemh is equivalent to cro magnon man or cro magnons a term derived from the cro magnon rock shelter in southwestern france where the first eemh were found in 1868. In fact theyre the earliest known european example of our species living between 35000 and 10000 years agoand. Hence the biggest difference between both of them was likely that neanderthal was unable or unfit to live in large groups.

For instance in neander thals the arm below the elbow and the leg below the knee were remarkably short. As a result compared to the cro magnons the neanderthals would have lost relatively little body heat through their extremities. After this cro magnons group size went up geometically.
