This inference, however, is based on modest faunal samples and thus may not represent a regular or systematic behaviour. Here we address this issue by looking for evidence of such behaviour across a large temporal and geographical framework. Our analyses try to answer four main questions: 1) does a Neanderthal to raptor-corvid connection exist at a large scale, thus avoiding associations that might be regarded as local in space or time?; 2) did Middle (associated with Neanderthals) and Upper Palaeolithic (associated with modern humans) sites contain a greater range of these species than Late Pleistocene paleontological sites?; 3) is there a taphonomic association between Neanderthals and corvids-raptors at Middle Palaeolithic sites on Gibraltar, specifically Gorham's, Vanguard and Ibex Caves? and; 4) was the extraction of wing feathers a local phenomenon exclusive to the Neanderthals at these sites or was it a geographically wider phenomenon?. We compiled a database of 1699 Pleistocene Palearctic sites based on fossil bird sites. We also compiled a taphonomical database from the Middle Palaeolithic assemblages of Gibraltar. We establish a clear, previously unknown and widespread, association between Neanderthals, raptors and corvids. We show that the association involved the direct intervention of Neanderthals on the bones of these birds, which we interpret as evidence of extraction of large flight feathers. The large number of bones, the variety of species processed and the different temporal periods when the behaviour is observed, indicate that this was a systematic, geographically and temporally broad, activity that the Neanderthals undertook. Our results, providing clear evidence that Neanderthal cognitive capacities were comparable to those of Modern Humans, constitute a major advance in the study of human evolution.", "link"=>"http://www.mendeley.com/research/birds-feather-neanderthal-exploitation-raptors-corvids", "reader_count"=>180, "reader_count_by_academic_status"=>{"Unspecified"=>8, "Professor > Associate Professor"=>7, "Librarian"=>1, "Researcher"=>42, "Student > Doctoral Student"=>5, "Student > Ph.

First of all, even non-hominid animals such as bower birds use feathers of other species for decoration (of their bowers).[1] This does not mean that these birds 'express symbolic behaviour'. Doing it simply enhances their mating opportunities.[1] Sexual selection is a more parsimonious explanation than 'showing unprecendented cognitive abilities', for these birds.\n\nHighly developed cognitive abilities are likely to have existed in Neanderthals. But burials in combination with ochre use are much stronger evidence for this than the taking and using of feathers from birds. Even a simple bird brain can do that trick. \nComment by: Matthijs Vos\nref: Borgia & Gore, (1986) Anim.

Bowerbirds are a good example, but many others exist. Great tits cover their eggs within the nest cavity using feathers that they actively gather in their territories (Sanz & Navas 2011). They even show colour preferences picking up those feathers. Eider duck females also cover their nest, but with their own down feathers (Kear 1990). In this case, the function seems to be to achieve thermal insulation, as they typically nest in high latitudes and ambient temperatures are generally around the freezing point (or lower). Inuit people collect eider nests for the very same reason: to procure their down and insulate themselves. \n\nHowever, no bird, and no other animal except humans, are known to place collected feathers on themselves for ornamentation. This is our hypothesis and this use of feathers would be unique and restricted to the genus Homo. Our proposal that Neanderthals had cognitive abilities comparable to those of modern humans is not only due to their use of feathers as ornaments. In isolation, such an statement would be an unacceptable silogism (i.e., modern humans use feathers, modern humans have superior cognitive abilities, thus Neanderthals using feathers have superior cognitive abilities). But this was not our reasoning. Neanderthals made lithic tools, Neanderthals had a diversified diet (Stringer et al. 2008), plus they may have used ornaments. Put together, Neanderthals do not seem to differ culturally from at least some contemporary Homo sapiens. Furthermore, recent genetic evidence shows that their similarity with modern humnans was such that they even exchanged genes. Feather use for ornamentation helps to recognize singular behavioural characteristics in Neanderthals.\n\n\nSanz, J. J., García-Navas, V. (2011).

This inference, however, is based on modest faunal samples and thus may not represent a regular or systematic behaviour. Here we address this issue by looking for evidence of such behaviour across a large temporal and geographical framework. Our analyses try to answer four main questions: 1) does a Neanderthal to raptor-corvid connection exist at a large scale, thus avoiding associations that might be regarded as local in space or time?; 2) did Middle (associated with Neanderthals) and Upper Palaeolithic (associated with modern humans) sites contain a greater range of these species than Late Pleistocene paleontological sites?; 3) is there a taphonomic association between Neanderthals and corvids-raptors at Middle Palaeolithic sites on Gibraltar, specifically Gorham's, Vanguard and Ibex Caves? and; 4) was the extraction of wing feathers a local phenomenon exclusive to the Neanderthals at these sites or was it a geographically wider phenomenon?. We compiled a database of 1699 Pleistocene Palearctic sites based on fossil bird sites. We also compiled a taphonomical database from the Middle Palaeolithic assemblages of Gibraltar. We establish a clear, previously unknown and widespread, association between Neanderthals, raptors and corvids. We show that the association involved the direct intervention of Neanderthals on the bones of these birds, which we interpret as evidence of extraction of large flight feathers. The large number of bones, the variety of species processed and the different temporal periods when the behaviour is observed, indicate that this was a systematic, geographically and temporally broad, activity that the Neanderthals undertook. Our results, providing clear evidence that Neanderthal cognitive capacities were comparable to those of Modern Humans, constitute a major advance in the study of human evolution.</p> </div>", "links"=>[], "tags"=>["birds", "neanderthal", "exploitation", "raptors", "corvids"], "article_id"=>120071, "categories"=>["Neuroscience", "Mental Health", "Evolutionary Biology"], "users"=>["Clive Finlayson", "Kimberly Brown", "Ruth Blasco", "Jordi Rosell", "Juan José Negro", "Gary R.
