Where did Cro Magnons get their big jaws from?

[Oliver109]

Neanderthals? An arctic climate modifying the physiology of Meds?

humans naturally had big jaws from chewing meat and they just preserved it? then in time with different types of cooking and less chewing (soups and purees, bread and spreads etc) it decreased? dunno if it's so, just saying

Meds have shallower jaws, according to Coon cro Magnons were a result of Meds breeding with Neanderthals.

interesting - I'll look it up in the book to understand his reasoning, since CroMags had positive (forward) chin while Neanderthals had receding (back-pushed) chins and face shape overall is different as well.

btw, do you know the punk band Cro Mags? and this guy from the band looks like a living Cro Mag!

Spoiler!

Yeah it's basically that CM types were modified after mixing with Neanderthals and the arctic conditions made some traits more advanced, same happened with Mongoloids, lol I'll check the band out when I get back from my dinner.

Lol I had some goat meat the other day, chewiest meat ever, no wonder the Meds and groids that cook it always make sure it is braised first.
