Scientists discovered the DNA of Neanderthals who lived together as a group in Poland over 100,000 years ago, and they found out these ancient people were related to Neanderthals living far away across Europe!

We're learning that Neanderthals weren't lonely wanderers—they had communities, relatives, and connections just like we do today!
