About this person
Johann Carl Fuhlrott was an early German paleoanthropologist. He is famous for recognising the significance of the bones of Neanderthal 1, a Neanderthal specimen discovered by German laborers who were digging for limestone in Feldhofer grotto, later known as Neander valley in August 1856. Originally disregarded, Fuhlrott, to his eternal credit, had the insight to recognise them for what they were: the remains of a previously unknown type of human.
