- Abstract:
Presented in a special series on 100 discoveries said to be changing the world, the article discusses research on social care of handicapped individuals among early humans. The research of paleoanthropologist Ana Gracia on the deformed skull of a 10-year-old child who died an estimated 530,000 years ago is noted. The remains were found at Sima de Los Huesos in the Atapuerca Mountains in Spain.
