Based upon the information provided in this week's module (lecture, reading and film clips) describe at least three sources of evidence that Neanderthals are not dumb and brutish and are in fact an intelligent species capable of symbolic expression. Initial Post Organization: Please make sure that your responses are organized into complete sentences.  I recommend that you devote at least one full paragraph to answering each discussion prompt. Your final post should be at least 300 words.  You should exercise college-level writing skills with correct spelling, grammar and punctuation.  You should include reference to at least three academic resources throughout your initial post.  I highly recommend that you first type out your response in a Microsoft Word document and run a spell and grammar check prior to submitting your final post. Reply Posts Once you have completed your post, you should respond to at least two other student's posts.  Remember, please don't simply say "I agree" or "I disagree." Please provide thoughtful and detailed responses.  Feel free to ask follow-up questions to your peers to keep the discussion flowing and allow you to learn from each other.  You should also provide citations whenever referencing outside sources.
