The Neanderthals Rediscovered: How Modern Science is Rewriting Their Story is a 2013 non-fiction book by Dimitra Papagianni [Wikidata] and Michael A. Morse, published by Thames & Hudson. The book focuses on the history, culture, and extinction of Neanderthals, the closest known relatives of anatomically modern humans. Neanderthals are widely stereotyped as primitive or unintelligent compared to modern humans, a myth dispelled by research in the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. Written to summarize substantial advances in Neanderthal research in the previous few decades, The Neanderthals Rediscovered addresses subjects like how Neanderthals used tools, how they hunted, the societies they formed, and potential reasons for their extinction. The book is fully illustrated, including 16 all-illustration pages.
Upon release, The Neanderthals Rediscovered received positive reviews. Critics praised its accessibility, its focus, and the quality of its illustrations. The Neanderthals Rediscovered won the Society for American Archaeology's 2015 Popular Book Award, with the organization describing it as "strik[ing] an excellent balance between broad popular appeal and satisfyingly rich content".
