先史人類（クロマニョン系狩猟採集民） Prehistoric Eurasian Hunter-Gatherers

A big (6'4"(193cm), 250lbs(113kg)) male prehistoric sapien hunter of Eurasia, who was much
stronger and better an athlete than most of sorry modern counterparts, is preparing for the
next mammoth hunting trip which would cause him to leave the family for days. His
tribe's worries about gradual but steady declines in prey resources and the competitive presence
of indigenous population(Neanderthals) are growing day by day.

The theory of possible interbreeding between sapiens and neanderthalensis right after the 'out of
Africa period' has now been widely circulated, but new research studies also point out that early
modern humans proved a greater competitive threat to indigenous Neanderthals than natural
disasters such as the campanian ignimbrite eruption.

It's also been hypothesized that whereas female humans interbreeding with male Neanderthals
were able to generate fertile offspring, the progeny of female Neanderthals who mated with male
humans were either rare, absent or sterile.

The man's worry is for sure growing and his tribe might sooner or later, be taking some decisive
step toward crashing with the natives.  

The tragic neanderthal eradication(or not so tragic gradual 'replacement') soon became an opening
for a series of much wider and thorough faunal extinction events which would be taking
place globally at the end of the pleistocene epoch.
