Neanderthal Man 'Attacked'

A 36,000-year-old Neanderthal whose skull was cracked by a blow on the head was attacked deliberately with a sharp implement, scientists say.
The discovery provides only the second clear clue that Neanderthals, a prehistoric people who vanished about 27,000 years ago, fought each other with weapons.

Swiss and French scientists discovered the wound after carrying out a three dimensional computer reconstruction of the skull.
