Article Synopsis
- The study examines a Neandertal tooth from Vergisson 4, which shows typical Neandertal features but predominantly displays left-handed striations.
- Mapping and analyzing the striations revealed that of 60 total, 46 (76.7%) were left-handed, a significant difference compared to just 3 right-handed striations.
- This finding contributes to our understanding of handedness variation in Neandertals, suggesting that while most were right-handed, the presence of left-handed individuals indicates some diversity in this trait.
