My class trip to the Museum of Natural History

Today our class went on trip to the Museum of Natural History. We saw a lot of exhibits about different ancient civilizations. The exhibit that was most interesting to me was the one about the Neanderthals. One thing I noticed was that the Neanderthals bones were cracked. The bones of more modern people are not cracked. An idea I had was about why the bones were cracked. It must have been that they did not have enough nutrients to keep their bones healthy. As civilization developed, people became better at eating healthy foods. This affects me because if I don't get enough nutrients I could get sick and have weak bones.
