Analyses of cut-marks reveal differences in butchering strategies among Neanderthals at two sites, suggesting cultural variability.

Comparison of cut-marks on animal bones indicates that Neanderthals at Amud and Kebara had distinct butchering techniques.
The analysis included 344 animal bone fragments, showing notable differences in cut-mark density and layout between sites.
Microscopic techniques helped characterize the cut-marks, revealing intra- and inter-site differences despite similar occupation conditions.
Findings suggest cultural differences in carcass processing and social traditions among Neanderthal groups at the two sites.

Jallon et al. (2025) studied this question.
