Neanderthals hunting Irish elk, artwork

Neanderthals hunting Irish elk, artwork. Group of Neanderthal hunters attacking a male Irish elk (Megaloceros giganteus). The Irish elk was one of the largest deer that ever lived. It ranged across Eurasia from around 400, 000 to 8000 years ago. It was over 2 metres high at the shoulder, with the male having large antlers. Neanderthals (Homo neanderthalensis), now extinct, inhabited Europe and western Asia between 230, 000 and 29, 000 years ago. It is thought that they had language, lived in small family groups and hunted for food. One theory is that they were outcompeted by modern humans (Homo sapiens)
