Middle Paleolithic[edit]
The Middle Paleolithic period occurred in Europe and the Near East, during which the Neanderthals lived (c. 300,000–28,000 years ago). The earliest evidence (Mungo Man) of settlement in Australia dates to around 40,000 years ago when modern humans likely crossed from Asia by island-hopping. The Bhimbetka rock sheltersexhibit the earliest traces of human life in India, some of which are approximately 30,000 years old.[citation needed]

Homo neanderthalensis used Mousterian Stone tools that date back to around 300,000 years ago[15] and include smaller, knife-like and scraper tools.[citation needed]They buried their dead in shallow graves along with stone tools and animal bones, although the reasons and significance of the burials are disputed
