Neanderthal

When a paleoanthropologist mysteriously disappears in the remote upper regions of the Pamir Mountains in Tajikistan, two of his former students, once lovers and now competitors, set off in search of him. Along the way, they make an astounding discovery: a remnant band of Neanderthals, the ancient rivals to Homo sapiens, live on. The shocking find sparks a struggle that replays a conflict from thirty thousand years ago and delves into the heart of modern humanity.

  • ""Im Pamirgebirge verschwindet unter mysteriösen Umständen ein berühmter Wissenschaftler. Als letztes Lebenszeichen schickt er ein Paket. Der Inhalt: ein überraschend gut erhaltener Schädel eines Neandertalers, die seit über 40,000 Jahren als ausgestorben gelten. Doch das Alter dieses Schädels beträgt nur 25 Jahre. Eine geschickte Fälschung? Oder die Bestätigung einer unglaublichen Vermutung -- daß nämlich ein Homonidenstamm bis heute überlebt hat?"--P. [4] of cover."

  • ""Matt Morrison and Susan Arnot, archaeologists and ex-lovers, are summoned to investigate an odd find: an apparently new Neanderthal skull. They rush to Tadjikistan and foray into some of the least hospitable terrain in Asia. Not too unexpectedly, they find their quarry only to discover a long-lost mentor who is guarding unsettling moral, political, and archaeological secrets that threaten their lives and those of the reclusive Neanderthals. Untangling the puzzle involves figuring out why one tribe is vegetarian and peaceful, the other martial and carnivorous; why their brains are larger than those of contemporary humans; and how they communicate without speech. When government agents intrude and threaten the scientific find, the two scientists must survive, rescue their old friend, deceive American and Russian intelligence gatherers, and balance a study of an astounding archaeological find with the interests of the tribes. ... [V]ery Indiana Jonesish"--Amazon.com for the English edition."
