The Neandertal Enigma
by James Shreeve

Frayer's own reading of the record reveals a number of overlooked traits that clearly and specifically link the Neandertals to the Cro-Magnons. One such trait is the shape of the opening of the nerve canal in the lower jaw, a spot where dentists often give a pain-blocking injection. In many Neandertal, the upper portion of the opening is covered by a broad bony ridge, a curious feature also carried by a significant number of Cro-Magnons. But none of the alleged 'ancestors of us all' fossils from Africa have it, and it is extremely rare in modern people outside Europe." [pp 126-127]

Sort of reminded me of Michele Obama when she is looking “focused and intense”.

[HereInTheHeartland]

I saw that guy today downtown. He had a clipboard in his hand and was registering people to vote.
He gets paid a stipend from the Obama campaign

This female received a great article in this months National Geographic.

Actually might be intelligent and vocal.

Maybe even more intelligent than an 0bama without a teleprompter!

Does this mean those of us with green eyes have Neanderthal DNA?

[Diana in Wisconsin]

Still not ‘manly’ enough for me. ;)

[Towed_Jumper]

...looks like your typical English Soccer hooligan.

[Harmless Teddy Bear]

You kind of have to wonder why they assume that these people didn't have combs.

Actually I think they did find Neanderthal combs in grave goods
