Books like Last Neanderthal by Claire Cameron

The Clan of the Cave Bear is a 1980 prehistoric fiction novel that explores the world of Neanderthals and Cro-Magnon humans during the Glacial epoch.

In *Hominids*, a Neanderthal physicist named Ponter Boddit accidentally crosses into our world, where he is studied, befriended, and becomes entangled in a murder investigation that threatens his survival.

A high‑adventure fantasy set in the heart of ancient Africa, where a hidden culture is discovered.

Scientists have long known that the popular image of the Neanderthal as a primitive, hairy, heavily browed, club-wielding brute is not supported by the fossil evidence. But to date, no such consensus has existed on the riddle of Neanderthals’ disappearance. The Last Neanderthal, written by one of the most respected authorities on the subject and supported by a dazzling wealth of material, paints the first full portrait of the most familiar and haunting of human relatives. Drawing on the latest findings and sophisticated new techniques of analysis, Ian Tattersall marshals the best available evidence to unravel the mysteries of the Neanderthals - who they were, how they lived, how they succeeded for so long. Drawing on his own research and the work of others, Tattersall takes on the most fascinating question of all - what happened to them? This revised edition is fully updated to include information on Tattersall’s recent survey of all known Neanderthal fossils, cutting-edge work with Neanderthal DNA, and new discoveries in Spain.

A funny attempt to capture our beginning with a humorous view of everyday tasks. We follow the main characters Lucy and Andy and their family as they explore new possibilities. In this edition we follow them as they discover art, new clothing styles, and start hunting... MAMMOTH?!? Be sure to check out their new book “ Lucy and Andy Neanderthal in... dun dun dun dun!! The Stone Cold Age!” That sounds really “cool!” Ha ha! See you in four million years!

40,000 years in the past, the last family of Neanderthals roams the earth. After a crushingly hard winter, their numbers are low, but Girl, the oldest daughter, is just coming of age and her family is determined to travel to the annual meeting place and find her a mate. But the unforgiving landscape takes its toll, and Girl is left alone to care for Runt, a foundling of unknown origin. As Girl and Runt face the coming winter storms, Girl realizes she has one final chance to save her people, even if it means sacrificing part of herself. In the modern day, archaeologist Rosamund Gale works well into her pregnancy, racing to excavate newly found Neanderthal artifacts before her baby comes. Linked across the ages by the shared experience of early motherhood, both stories examine the often taboo corners of women's lives. Haunting, suspenseful, and profoundly moving, THE LAST NEANDERTHAL asks us to reconsider all we think we know about what it means to be human.
