Did Neanderthal man die out because he was too smart for his own good? - We like to think our superior brainpower led to their demise.But it seems the real reason the Neanderthals died out may be because they were too clever for their own good.Researchers say that rather than being outwitted by the superior intellect of modern man, our caveman cousins were every bit as sophisticated.
