Use the excerpt below from a book about the discovery of a Neanderthal skull in Belgium to answer the following question: “The skull was first noticed … nearest to the entrance of the cavern… The other bones [were further in] lying in the same [area]. Of this I was assured … by two laborers who were employed to clear out the [small cave]… At first no idea was entertained of the bones being human… It was not till several weeks after their discovery that they were recognized as such by me… But, as the importance of the discovery was not at the time [known], the laborers were very careless in the collecting, and secured chiefly only the larger bones.”
