	Gods Graves Glyphs	Thanks decimon. The Neandertal Enigma by James Shreeve Frayer's own reading of the record reveals a number of overlooked traits that clearly and specifically link the Neandertals to the Cro-Magnons. One such trait is the shape of the opening of the nerve canal in the lower jaw, a spot where dentists often give a pain-blocking injection. In many Neandertal, the upper portion of the opening is covered by a broad bony ridge, a curious feature also carried by a significant number of Cro-Magnons. But none of the alleged 'ancestors of us all' fossils from Africa have it, and it is extremely rare in modern people outside Europe."

Does this new information push back the date when Noah had Neanderthals on his boat or was Noah a Neanderthal??

[jonatron]

Uh Yeah, I think I went on a date with her once...

[Dog Gone]

Some here will not take lightly to the implication that there have been separate species of humans.

[Battle Axe]

Am I reading this correctly.....

extremely rare outside Europe......yet in Europe.....where in Europe so they find this plate?

So that means that Neanderthal genes are still carried in Europe. I think I dated him in college. There was a great deal of pubescence....

Turns out, We're BROTHERS!

Here is one of the mtDNA genomes from a Neanderthal http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/viewer.fcgi?db=nuccore&id=195972535 and one from a human http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/viewer.fcgi?db=nuccore&id=195592947

they are very similar

[Cyber Liberty]

They could have just done a blood-draw on this fellow to get Neanderthal DNA.
