The appearance of weaponry - technology designed to kill - is a critical but poorly established threshold in human evolution. It is an important behavioural marker representing evolutionary changes in ecology, cognition, language and social behaviours. htt

@RobertR10979198 idk how they compared to modern humans, but archaic humans could definitely throw. Here's a whole study on the idea: https://t.co/yBbBAFnlXi The researchers clearly believe Neanderthals and Homo sapiens had similar ability.

@MatthewPope @greg_jenner If modern humans are able to throw a Neanderthal spear & Neanderthals were more muscular than those modern athletes, it seems logical to assume they could throw those spears. Other apes throw stones, so it seems unlikely to be
2/Also fascinating that Neanderthals never invented projectile weapon technology. Even if they could have thrown their spears, it seems like that would involve very different hunting/fighting styles compared to using bows and arrows or spear throwers. htt
