all non africans are part neanderthal

Actually, we (Europeans) have been scientifically proven to have killed off the neanderthal while our African counterparts mated with them for centuries.

Same thing I remeber as well.

I don't know where you would have heard this.

There is no evidence that there were ever any Neanderthals in Africa.

I can see an article in the future: "All western Muslims part caucasian, genetics confirm".

Proven, huh? I'd love to see that "proof". HahA

I swear I've seen an article on this, give me a bit I'll try to find it.

OK, I give up every article I look at is some rant about race.
I may have been remembering wrong and it might have been Cro Magnon, not Neanderthal.

If I stumble upon the article again I'll post it.
Was an interesting read.

But there evidence that there is neanderthals in Washington DC and Frankfort KY

"Cro Magnon" is a term that has become virtually meaningless. Basically, it is used to mean early modern humans found in Europe.

If you were to gather all the human remains *ever* found they wouldn't fill a coffin. As such, most of the sweeping conclusions made about early humans prior to the advent of modern gene sequencing barely rise above the level of conjecture. I'm not saying the folks who drew those conclusions weren't doing good work; rather, I'm saying the HUGE gaps in the fossil record make it impossible to arrive at "scientific proof" from physical examination of remains and associated artifacts.

This is a summary of the 2010 study cited in the original link above.

[justang1997]

I just read some stuff saying that the Neanderthals specialized in living in colder weather and night hunting were isolated from African humans or cromagnons untill they developed sewing and warm clothing. The African hunters tended to follow herds and pick off weak old or young that fell behind, and only during the daylight. This allowed them to exist with the neanderthals and not really directly compete for food. During this time the cross breeding occurred because the neanderthal women were more attractive due to their blonde or red hair and blue or green eyes. This was something not found in african DNA.

neandertal gingers?

neandertal gingers?

Dear god... I love me some gingers.

[g19]

Gingers....noooo!!!!

[scorpionmain]

I also read somewhere once, that they had a theory that modern autism is a trait that was inherited from the neanderthal.
