| I could read about them for hours on Wikipedia. You just have to make sure that you don't accidentally contract medical students' disease in the process. |

I'm pretty sure Neanderthals didn't have any religious beliefs

One sure mark of a fool is to dismiss anything that falls outside his experience as being impossible. |

Very little convincing evidence exists that Neanderthals cared for that sort of thing |

300,000 years ago – first (disputed) evidence of intentional burial of the dead. Sites such as Atapuerca in Spain, which has bones of over 32 individuals in a pit within a cave.[20] 130,000 years ago – Earliest undisputed evidence for intentional burial. Neanderthals bury their dead at sites such as Krapina in Croatia.[20] 100,000 years ago – The oldest known ritual burial of modern humans at Qafzeh in Israel: a double burial of what is thought to be a mother and child. The bones have been stained with red ochre. By 100,000 years ago anatomically modern humans migrated to the middle east from Africa. However the fossil record of these humans ends after 100kya, leading scholars to believe that population either died out or returned to Africa.[21][22] 100,000 to 50,000 years ago – Increased use of red ochre at several Middle Stone Age sites. Red Ochre is thought to have played an important role in ritual.[23][24] 42,000 years ago – Ritual burial of a man at Lake Mungo in Australia. The body is sprinkled with copious amounts of red ochre - seen as evidence that the Australians had brought along with them religious rituals from Africa.[citation needed] 40,000 years ago – Upper Paleolithic begins in Europe. An abundance of fossil evidence includes elaborate burials of the dead, Venus figurines and cave art. Venus figurines are thought to represent fertility goddesses. The cave paintings at Chauvet and Lascaux are believed to represent religious thought. 30,000 years ago – Earliest known burial of a shaman.[13] 11,000 years ago – The Neolithic Revolution begins.

I don't see that being religious either It's not like atheists don't grieve their dead loved ones and put flowers on their graves

those burials are in twime with religion, because they have religious decorated ornaments depicting supernatural objects, even in cave paintings,
its not even that different from modern religions, they had no difference from reality and religion, they thought the sun was a god that rised up in the day and went away,
we cry when someone is buried because we will never see them again,
why do you think religious people cry then? if you are gonna see them in 'heaven' |
