“…Nevertheless, current studies hold that Neanderthals were skilled hunters of large mammals and that they had great behavioural flexibility, allowing them to exploit a wide spectrum of resources. Archaeological evidence attests, for example, the exploitation of marine food resources, including mammals, fishes and molluscs (Stiner, 1994(Stiner, , 2009(Stiner, /2010Stringer et al, 2008;Colonese et al, 2011;Cortés-Sánchez et al, 2011;Hardy and Moncel, 2011;Nabais and Zilhão, 2019), of small game (Stiner et al, 2000;Hockett and Haws, 2002;Alhaique et al, 2004;Miracle, 2007;Blasco and Fernández Peris, 2012;Cochard et al, 2012;Carvalho et al, 2018;Romandini et al, 2018a;Morin et al, 2019), of birds, (Peresani et al, 2011;Finlayson et al, 2012;Romandini et al, 2014bRomandini et al, , 2016Blasco et al, 2016;Laroulandie et al, 2016) and of carnivores (Auguste, 2003;Petram et al, 2004;Camaròs et al, 2017;Romandini et al, 2018b). Several studies on isotopes, dental calculus and dental microwear pointed out the key role of vegetal component in Neanderthal's dietary spectrum, in addition to the meaty component.…”
