Neandertal burials  

Définition

  • Although it is possible that early humans buried their dead for purely hygienic reasons or to discourage scavengers, many anthropologists view intentional burial as a kind of symbolic behavior. Some have even suggested that it represents the earliest evidence of religion. [Source: Encyclopedia of Anthropology; Neandertal Burials]
