Answer
The bones of the first Neanderthals were discovered in the Neander Valley near Düsseldorf, Germany, in 1856. These remains were the first evidence of a human species that was not Homo sapiens. Neanderthals were a type of archaic human that lived in Europe and western Asia from about 200,000 to 30,000 years ago. They were physically similar to modern humans, but they had larger brains and heavier bodies.
