it was a number of things

climate

i think majorily since all societies before humans

were just nomadic

cross breeding

so you traveled along with your animal

they lacked the ability to catch easy food

and if your animals are dying because the climate is getting colder

because they couldnt throw spears

u will die too

they had to rely on attacking targets head on

not throw spears?

no they could not

they had to charge and fight

how do you suppose

they couldnt throw spear

arm size

same reason why monkeys cant throw

there bone structure doesnt allow it

no monkeys cant throw

because the arrow i am pointing to

does not exist

they dont have balance when they throw shit

neanderthals and precursor humans do however

animals can try throwing but they'll throw their body with it as well without the bone structure my image points to

hmmm

you might be right actually

also not sure if a javelin is the same as a spear

about the spear thing

yeah hmmm

i guess i was misinformed about the spear thing

ill cite the video i watched

one sec

It's simple the neanderthals simply got outbred

the neanderthal female could support the homo sapien baby, while the homo sapien female could not support the neanderthal baby

so whenever a hunting tribe and another hunting tribe attacked

homo sapien won easily

killed the neanderthal males and kept the females for captives

yes
