Amud man

Japanese: アムッド人 - アムッドじん(英語表記)Amud man
Amud man
A Neanderthal (archaic man) from the late Pleistocene period discovered in the Amud Cave in Israel by a Tokyo University research team led by Suzuki Hisashi from 1961 to 1964. Skeleton No. 1 is an adult male approximately 178cm tall, and almost the entire skeleton has been found. Other remains include a skull fragment and free teeth. As it has characteristics similar to both European Neanderthals and fossil modern humans, it is believed to be a human who was in the transitional stage from the archaic to the modern humans. It is associated with a Middle Paleolithic culture.
