Seriously, very interesting article. :)

I read this when it was linked through Archaeology Magazine’s news page the other day.

I'll wait for peer review and other finds. Why are there so many that want to tear down humanity like Obama destroying Americanism? Some still believe in Nebraska man because they saw it in a diagram. This is just another theory.

If the bones of a person with birth defects, like the elephant man, had been found in a cave, and analyzed by some of the people who like to jump to conclusions about “new discoveries”, then the elephant man would’ve been described as an entirely new species of humans.

I can't tell from that chart how closely related the French are to humans.
