Had one as my lawyer.

My primitive mind can't grasp these concepts. But there is one thing I do know - when a man like my client slips and falls on a sidewalk in front of a public library, then he is entitled to no less than two million in compensatory damages, and two million in punitive damages.

There are plenty of folk-tales and legends about the old people in Europe. Some of these could be about the neanderthals, although 25,000 years would put it way back in oral tradition.

LOL, another quote:

"Ladies and gentlemen of the jury, I'm just a caveman. I fell on some ice and was later thawed by some of your scientists. Your world frightens and confuses me! When I see my image on the security camera at the country club, I wonder, are they stealing my soul? I get so upset, I hop out of my Range Rover, and run across the fairway to the clubhouse, where I get Carlos to make me one of those martinis he's so famous for, to soothe my primitive caveman brain. But whatever world you're from, I do know one thing: in the 20 years from March 22, 1972, when he first ordered that extra nicotine be put into his product, until February 25, 1992, when he issued an interoffice memorandum stopping the addition of that nicotine, my client was legally insane."

Neanderthals still exist. Many of them vote Democrat every single election cycle. Their primative brains prevent them doing anything otherwise.

It's possible.

I read where one anthropologist says that Gigantopithicus (large extinct ape) is the source of our legends/myth of 'boogey men.' The youngest Gigantopithicus skeleton ever found is 600,000 years old.
