Title: Neanderthals speak out Post by: Sarah90 on April 16, 2008, 02:08:30 AM ***www.NewScientist.com - NEWSFLASH***
Neanderthals speak out after 30,000 years Talk about a long silence - no one has heard their voices for 30,000 years. Now the long-extinct Neanderthals are speaking up - or at least a computer synthesiser is doing so on their behalf. We have the sound files.

I always assumed Neanderthals just grunted and these folks who took the trouble to figure out our predecessor's voice-box 30,000-some years later deserve kudos.
Heh, can you imagine one of these low-brows singing in the shower? Yikes! :dizzy2.gif: |
