Curator's tour: Neanderthal Stereotypes

Das sagt der/die Veranstalter:in:

Let the minds behind our new special exhibition ‘Stereotypical Neanderthals’ take you on a fascinating journey into the world of the Neanderthals - a world that is far more diverse than we think! Our curators debunk common clichés and show that life in Neanderthal communities was not just about muscle-bound hunters. Where were the women, the children and the older members of the communities? What tasks did they have, or were there perhaps no fixed roles at all?

In this exclusive guided tour, you will learn how the international team of archaeologists designed the exhibition and built on scientific data to shed light on the diversity of Neanderthal communities. From rare exhibits to immersive experience stations - you can expect exciting insights and an interactive experience that will give you a whole new perspective on the Neanderthals.

And the highlight: archaeologist and successful author Rebecca Wragg Sykes brings the Neanderthals to life in the audio tour she has written. Find out which of the four Neanderthals will accompany you on your journey.
