Summary

Description

Oase 2

  • Age: About 41,500–39,500 years old
  • Site: Peştera cu Oase, Romania
  • Year of Discovery: 2003
  • Discovered by: Ştefan Milota, Ricardo Rodrigo, Oana Moldovan and João Zilhão
  • Age: About 41,500–39,500 years old
  • Species: Homo sapiens

This skull looks modern but retains a few archaic traits, such as wide cheek bones. Some scientists wonder if this means that on rare occasions Homo sapiens interbred with Neanderthals, who lived in Europe at the same time.
