Minatogawa People (An Asian Neanderthal?)

All the physical characteristics used to describe Neanderthals are still present in humans worldwide today.
As an example, some Australian Aboriginies have more severe brow ridges than did Neanderthals.

I remember a Neanderthal face being reconstructed on a skull in the same manner as forensic labs do. Looks like a human with a large nose and low forehead, just like in the thumbnail that hopefully links here. Neanderthal women even used makeup and jewelry. (There are still pseudoscientists that like to depict them as chimpanzee-like, though.)
