As time went by, they made fires inside the caves where they lived and did so without a fireplace (壁炉) or a chimney. This is no easy skill. “When you make a fire in an enclosed space, there is a danger of breathing in smoke. And in many cases, it doesn’t allow one even to stay near the fire because of smoke,” said Ran Barkai, an archaeologist at Tel Aviv University. So how did Neanderthals do it? Barkai and his team were determined to find out. They built a virtual model of the Lazaret Cave on France’s Mediterranean coast—a place early humans called home 170,000 years ago. The scientists placed 16 fireplaces throughout the cave and studied where the smoke went. “In the middle of the cave is the best place if you wish to avoid as much smoke as possible,” said Barkai. As it happens, the middle of the cave is exactly where prehistoric people put their fires for generations. Barkai said there was a bit of trial and error involved. “It’s clear to us that Neanderthals made a survey of the cave once they entered and invited a Neanderthal internal designer. And then they decided where they put the kitchen, the sleeping area and so on,” he said. Sarah Hlubik of George Washington University wasn’t involved in the study but called it clever. “The experiment illustrates how early humans used their intelligence to deal with a punishing climate.
