Prehistoric humans 'had feelings of compassion and cared for others'
Neanderthal Man may have cared for others in the group
Early humans like Neanderthals had a deep-seated sense of compassion, new research suggests.
A team from the University of York examined archaeological evidence for the way emotions began to emerge in our ancestors as they became modern humans.
The research shows that in Europe between around 500,000 and 40,000 years ago, early humans such as Homo heidelbergensis and Neanderthals developed commitments to the welfare of others.
The injured or infirm were routinely cared for in this period, according to the findings.
Remains examined by the university’s Department of Archaeology researchers revealed how a child with a congenital brain abnormality was not abandoned but lived until five or six years old.
And it shows how a Neanderthal with a withered arm, deformed feet and blindness in one eye was cared for, perhaps for as long as 20 years.
