Showing results for "The Neanderthals" in Historical

Neanderthals have developed a radically different civilization on a parallel Earth. A Neanderthal physicist, Ponter Boddit, accidentally passes from his universe into a Canadian underground research facility.

Solving the language problem and much else is a mini-computer, called a Companion, implanted in the brain of every Neanderthal. But it can't help his fellow scientist back in his world, Adikor Huld, when the authorities charge Adikor with his murder.

Nel 1938 un'equipe di paleontologi italo-francesi trova i frammenti del cranio di un uomo di Neanderthal: in onore del grande, omonimo ciclista, l'ominide viene affettuosamente soprannominato "Bartali".
