Bones recovered from one of the world s most significant fossil sites have started a debate over whether some of the earliest human ancestors may have hibernated to survive harsh winters.

The site at Atapuerca, in Northern Spain, is known as the Sima de los Huesos, or Pit of Bones, and since the early 1980s, thousands of teeth and bones, some dating back more than 400,000 years, have been found, which are thought to belong to early Neanderthals or even their predecessors. ....

New Evidence Suggests Early Humans HIBERNATED In Caves, Like Bears


 
 
Exposed to the harshest conditions imaginable on the unforgiving Iberian tundra, desperate early humans may have had no choice but to retreat into caves and hibernate. In this dark and cold environment, they may have lapsed into “metabolic states that helped them survive for long periods of time in frigid conditions with limited supplies of food and enough stores of body fat,” Arguaga and Bartsiokas explained.
The researchers acknowledge that their speculative hypothesis sounds like “science fiction.” But they note that primitive primates, from which we all evolved directly or in parallel, are among the animals known to have hibernated. This suggests that “the genetic basis and physiology for such a hypometabolism could be preserved in many mammalian species, including humans.” ....
