Question

The Neanderthal skeleton known as the "old man" showed evidence of many injuries over a long life. Several broken bones had healed, and almost all of his teeth had fallen out. What does this most likely indicate?

Answer 1

Answer:

It has been suggested that these kinds of lesions may be indicative of  fighting with other members of its species or the attacks of predators

Explanation:

The Neandertals were exposed to very hard environmental conditions, thereby these lesions may be indicative of such conditions to which this species was exposed.
