For sure! Just like now, we live pretty much anywhere we can find something to eat.

The cave is not mandatory. ๐Ÿ˜„

Just wanted to touch on a stereotype of our ancestors.

Also no evidence of Neanderthals being dumb, it's just the first guy to identify one felt they looked dumb... ๐Ÿ˜ตโ€๐Ÿ’ซ

they were making tools, probably as smart as we are. just a much lower technological head start.

and there's probably a fair bit of neanderthal DNA floating in the human genome. (its a bit... misleading to say europeans have 1-2%; there would have been substantial overlap)
