Neanderthal tools found at dig


Dozens of tools thought to have belonged to Neanderthals have been dug up at an archaeological site called Beedings in West Sussex.

...It is the first modern scientific investigation of the site since it was discovered in 1900.

...The tools were only recently recognised to be of international importance, following research by Roger Jacobi of the Ancient Human Occupation of Britain project.
