On another occasion, but still in Germany – in the Neander valley – a human skull was found.
在另一個地方，但仍在德國，在尼安德爾山谷，人們發現了一塊人的頭蓋骨。
And this was also immensely interesting because nobody alive today has a skull like this one either.
這有意思極了，因為現在活著的人也沒有這樣的一塊頭蓋骨。
Instead of a forehead like ours it just had two thick ridges above the eyebrows.
沒有我們這樣的額頭，眉毛上僅有兩個厚厚的皺摺。
Now, if all our thinking goes on behind our foreheads and these people didn't have any foreheads, then perhaps they didn't think as much as we do.
現在如果我們所有的思考都是在是我們額頭的后部進行的，而如果這些人沒有額頭，那么他們也許就不像我們思考得這么多。
Or at any rate, thinking may have been harder for them.
無論如何，思考可能對他們更困難。
So the people who examined the skull concluded that once upon a time there were people who weren't very good at thinking,
所以檢查了這頭蓋骨的人們總結說曾經有不善于思考的人，
but who were better at biting than we are today.
但他們卻比現今的我們有更強的咀嚼能力。
