They were probably much more intelligent than your average democrat.

True, at least they knew how to survive on their own without government assistance programs and entitlements.

Ladies and Gentlemen, I'm just a caveman who was unfrozen by some of your scientists. Your world frightens and confuse me. But I do know this: When my people are defamed and denigrated by some questionable femur examiners, I'm entitled to a 9.7 million dollar settlement!

It isn’t even certain the “Out of Africa” theory is true.

Very interesting book that puts forward an alternative Out of Africa theory. Well documented. Taught me more about genetics than the one college course I took. Free, on-line, downloadable as a pdf.
Note: not politically correct. Be warned.

Notice how the Neanderthal depictions look nothing like the evidence of their skulls. For one thing (and only one thing) Neanderthal eye sockets were round and enormous. Ours are about half their size and almost rectangular. Yet, the picture shows the supposed Neanderthals with almost human eyes. BS!

I find all of this stereotyping offensive...
To: blam
The brow ridges of those aborigines tell it all.
10-15 years ago you couldn’t speak of Neanderthal, heidelbergensis, or Denisovan as being part of the human genome. If it wasn’t sub Saharan African (recent migration) genes it didn’t exist. It became political rather than scientific. Like global warming leftist politics was the only science allowed to be spoken.

That picture...
Does that mean that everyone living in Spain is originally from Heidelberg?

" If it wasnt sub Saharan African (recent migration) genes it didnt exist. It became political rather than scientific. Like global warming leftist politics was the only science allowed to be spoken."Yup.
Then there's this:
First Human Ancestor Not African, German Research Team Claims
"The lineage of humans and apes possibly split at a point several hundred thousand years earlier than currently assumed - and in the eastern Mediterranean rather than sub-Saharan Africa, a German research team claim."

She doesn’t move her arms when she dances.
More seriously, there is some evidence from pollen spores found among certain Neanderthal remains that flowers may have been deposited in their burial sites. If that’s true, it would mark the human beginnings of spirituality.

Sub Saharan Africans have 0%. Well, no.
They have looked a little deeper and found that they have Neanderthal DNA as well. Probably taken there in the migrations back into Africa.
