Scientists reveal a more human-like visage from ancient remains, altering perceptions of our closest extinct relatives.

Archaeologists at the University of Cambridge successfully reconstructed the face of 'Shanidar Z', a Neanderthal woman, using over 200 skull fragments.
The detailed facial reconstruction challenges previous notions of Neanderthal appearance, showing less pronounced facial features.
Advanced techniques including 3D printing and digital modeling were pivotal in piecing together the fragmented skull.
The study provides insights into the shared history and interbreeding between Neanderthals and modern humans.
The findings are featured in a new Netflix documentary, enhancing public understanding of Neanderthal life and culture.
