Neanderthal remains discovered in a cave in Belgium thought to be 37,000 years old are actually thousands of years older than previous studies suggested, study shows.
University of Oxford archaeologists re-dated a number of Neanderthal specimens from Spy Cave in Belgium, a renowned site for palaeolithic discoveries and found contamination skewed earlier dating efforts.
The team say some bones previously dated at about 37,000 years old from within the cave may be up to 5,000 years older.
Determining that the bones were older than suspected allowed the researchers to confirm that Neanderthals disappeared from northwest Europe between 44,200 and 40,600 years ago - up to 8,000 years later than previous estimates.   ....

Neanderthal remains believed to belong to some of the last survivors of the species in Europe are thousands of years older than once thought, according to a new study.
Exactly when Neanderthals, our closest ancestors, disappeared
in Europe is hotly debated. They are thought to have gone extinct around 40,000 years ago not long after modern humans migrated out of Africa.
But previous studies of remains found in Belgium’s Spy Cave had placed specimens as recent as around 37,000 years ago which would have made the owners some of Europe’s latest surviving Neanderthals. ....
