Neanderthal Fat Factory? Prehistoric Hack Discovered!

Archaeologists have just uncovered an ancient ‘fat factory’ — built by Neanderthals over 125,000 years ago!
At a site in Neumark-Nord, Germany, researchers found over 4,000 crushed and processed animal bones — mostly bison and red deer. But this wasn’t just survival hunting. This was organized, large-scale fat extraction: boiling bones, rendering marrow, and stockpiling nutrients for colder months.
Dr. Lutz Kindler calls it “strategic and intensive.” These Neanderthals weren’t just primitive hunters — they were early planners, chefs, and survivalists, using fire and fat like prehistoric engineers.
This pushes back the timeline for advanced human-like behavior and shows that Neanderthals had cognitive abilities far beyond what many believed.
