So easy even a caveman can have sex.

I read this quickly and did not see a reference point I saw in an earlier article:

Neanderthal and Denisovan DNA is not found in native born Africans.

That, of course, would fracture the politically correct conventional wisdom that all modern humans evolved on the exact same evolutionary branch from Africa.

I'm going to guess that Progressive journalists and Progressive academics are going to avoid that topic as long as they can.

[2ndDivisionVet]

I’m thinking you are correct.

[OldNewYork]

Multi-regional evolution has been sidelined for a long time before these discoveries, for that very reason. But in parts of the world where academics aren’t encouraged to look like pajama boy, it has had better respect, even, if I recall correctly, being the dominant model.

Actually the from what i have seen it seems as per anthropological geneticist that the human race was almost wiped out ~50-100k years ago and we are all derived from a group of ~ 200 IIRC Bushmen in S Africa.

“But the sequence also reveals that interbreeding occurred between Neanderthals and other hominin groups, including early modern humans.”

Oh my. This is going to open a whole new can of worms.
This may be what defines the races of today.
If you are _________ you are __% Neanderthal. I look for
this area of genetic anthropology to be shut down and all
data destroyed or hidden from the public soon.

... which thus appear to have come from an unknown archaic hominin group.

I found it, and married her, but I digress.. ;)

I’d have to look it up...

I’m thinking you are correct.

Indeed he is! Trust me, I know these things........

[hosepipe]

WHAT If...... there were no... Neanderthals?....
They were just a gleam in some ones eye?..
-OR- a reason for an academic financial grant.. from givernment..
-OR- left wing controlled foundation...

Hey.... it’s possible... just a scam for academic funding..
Maybe not a pot induced gambit from some hippy...
i.e. Berkely.. Princeton, Yale, Harvard... Columbia...

BUT... that is always possible as well.. many professors are stoners..

Neanderthal forehead, Australopithecus cheekbones, Cro-Magnon jaw and chin.

There are certain parts of the Middle East where this study of inbreeding among primitive humanoids could be conducted on a live population group.
