Researchers are examining fossil rhinoceros teeth discovered at the Payre site in the Rhône Valley, France, as part of the RINO project. This site is believed to date back to the Middle Paleolithic era.
The project aims to determine whether the unusual marks on the teeth indicate their use as tools by Neanderthals, offering insights into their behavior and capabilities.
Understanding how Neanderthals utilized available resources is crucial for comprehending their adaptation strategies during this period.
