sdelsolray Posted June 27, 2015 Share Posted June 27, 2015 Many folks' DNA contains between 1 to 3 percent Neanderthal DNA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super Moderator florduh Posted June 27, 2015 Super Moderator Share Posted June 27, 2015 I've seen a few that must have more than 3%. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sdelsolray Posted June 27, 2015 Share Posted June 27, 2015 Neanderthals were quite intelligent, certainly more physically robust, and had social practices similar to Early Modern Humans (fka Cro-Magnon). Recent research suggests that prior views of Neanderthals is misplaced as well as inaccurate. Hollywood has contributed to this misperception. Yes, the sub-species Neanderthal became extinct, but the research indicates that was due primarily to their location and the ice age, i.e., their environment. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ravenstar Posted June 28, 2015 Share Posted June 28, 2015 I have a (pet) theory that red hair comes from neanderthals. I have no way to prove it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mymistake Posted June 28, 2015 Share Posted June 28, 2015 I have a (pet) theory that red hair comes from neanderthals. I have no way to prove it Maybe when we get better data on gene mapping within large populations. I would love to learn all that we can from human pre-history.

Blood Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 40,000 years ago? That kind of redefines "modern" doesn't it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fweethawt Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 I have a (pet) theory that red hair comes from neanderthals. I have no way to prove it Modern genetic research shows that people with red hair have no souls. Dr. Eric Cartman's studies have proven this time and time again.
