Illustration of a Homo heidelbergensis group butchering a rhinoceros that they have hunted, while scavengers steal some meat. The scene takes place 500, 000 years ago, during the Middle Pleistocene, in what is now Boxgrove, West Sussex, UK. Fossil remains and hundreds of hand axes were found at this site in 1994. H. heidelbergensis, a relative of modern humans (Homo sapiens), is thought to be an ancestor of Neanderthals (Homo neanderthalensis). | |
