João Carlos Teiga Zilhão is a Portuguese professor of paleontology at the University of Bristol, known for his research on the extinction of Neanderthals and the emergence of Cro-Magnon humans in Europe. He advocates that Neanderthals resisted the arrival of modern humans in southern Iberia for thousands of years and suggests possible interbreeding between the two species, supported by findings in Lagar Velho, Portugal. He has faced significant opposition to his views from other researchers. Zilhão has organized international conferences and received multiple awards for his scholarly contributions.
