Well...... Fred Flintstone may in fact have been a Neanderthal because it’s obvious Wilma was much, much smarter than her mate.
Maybe Wilma Flintstone was actually a Cro-Magnon. Together they produced Pebbles, evidently a modern human. This could bolster the theory that the Neanderthals died out as a separate species not due to inability to adapt, but because of intermarriage.
lol, i think you’re on to something there. Apparently there’s much more to be gleaned from that time than even i (a devoted student of the Flintstone epoch) realized.
