PLEASE EXPLAIN:Why the F*ck is the neanderthal in cold Europe Dark Skinned, jeez even scientists are Racist, NEVER wanting to depict primivite blonde people. Unless the blonde people are ALBINOS?
My family is all descended from Europeans, with a tan we have that same skin tone, my hair is darker though and I'm not as hairy.Not all Europeans are blond.
Stop being so reactionary, picbi. That model may have been made a while ago. Regardless, recent research on Neandertal nuclear DNA have shown that at least the Neandertal sampled had red hair -- but it is possible there were dark skinned Neandertals, just as there are dark skinned Europeans nowadays.
"The Neandertal nuclear genome sequencing project is underway as well, but it will be a while before that's complete."Okay Brainy Smurf, and then can we make a Neanderthal man?
