The majority of neandertal fossils been found in _____________where they have been most studied.
sergiy2304 [10]

The majority of neandertal fossils been found in <u>Europe </u>where they have been most studied.

More about the neandertals:

The Neanderthals have undergone extensive evolutionary change. Around 430,000 years have passed since the earliest fossils that resemble Neanderthals were discovered. The earliest Neanderthals are thought to have existed between 130,000 and 40,000 years ago, beyond which no physical proof of them can be found.

In contrast to modern humans, who have a more globular skull, Neanderthals had a long, low head with a distinctively noticeable brow ridge above their eyes.

Their face also stood out. A very large, wide nose dominated the forward-protruding middle portion of the face. They would have breathed in warm, moist air thanks to the high internal volume of their noses. The size of their front teeth and the scratch scars on them indicate that they were frequently employed as a third hand when preparing food and other materials.
