ABSTRACT
This report deals with the first benign intraosseous tumor of the maxillofacial skeleton ever documented in a species of the Homo genus, to our knowledge. The lower jaw, which belonged to a representative of Homo neanderthalensis, indicated that expansive processes with bone remodeling were already present in ancient times, showing no difference with similar disease patterns found daily in modern Homo sapiens.
