SOURCE: SCIENCE DAILY MIND-BRAIN FEEDTITLE: Scientists think they’ve cracked the mystery of human right-handedness
URL: https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2026/05/260517211429.htm
A new study suggests humans became overwhelmingly right-handed because of two major evolutionary shifts: walking on two legs and developing much larger brains. Researchers found that as human ancestors evolved, their right-hand preference steadily intensified — transforming a mild tendency into one of humanity’s most distinctive traits.

Neanderthal Vanishing: Social Bonds, Not Blizzards, Implicated
New studies suggest Neanderthals vanished because their social groups were weaker than Homo sapiens, not due to bad weather. Learn why.

New research shows Neanderthals disappeared because their social connections were not as strong as Homo sapiens. This made them less able to adapt.

Genetic clues tell the story of Neanderthals’ decline.
The Neanderthal population shrank during a cold spell around 75 000 years ago, and the loss of genetic diversity may have contributed to their eventual extinction.

12,000-year-old elk hide, sewn with hand-spun cord, found in an Oregon cave. Likely the world's oldest known sewing.
Our nan claims she's been at it just as long. 🧵
Dry caves preserve everything. Ancient humans were extraordinary. What do you reckon they were making?

World’s oldest #yarn hints that #Neanderthals had basic math skills
By Kiona N. Smith
"A tiny scrap of thread stuck to the lower side of a stone flake offers a huge insight into Neanderthal life. The 6.2mm (0.24 inch) long bit of thread, spun from plant fibers, is the oldest example of the material ever found. According to uranium-series dating, the thread came from a layer of sediment between 52,000 and 41,000 years old at a Neanderthal site called Abri du Maras, in France."
