Yep.

We were probably able to have babies more easily.

But what I do not understand is it seems scientists do not understand immigration is like a wave that goes back and forth.

So genes travel both ways.

Neanderthals were most likely taken out by roving bands of raping teens

DNA science is one that isn’t settled.

Every major new study creates new theories and often unsettles the previous DNA theories.

Also,politics and probably PCism is getting involved with the DNA science. That will probably screw up future DNA printouts

So, my African DNA was possibly polluted with Neanderthal DNA, and probably my snowflake Euro DNA. My snowflake Euro DNA, so far is mainly snowflake western Euro and the UK’s donations across those islands.

Every DNA linkage reports released by Ancestry have had a lot of changes.

The first big release 2 years ago, took away a lot of my Spanish and Iberian peninsula ancestors.

A big mystery to my siblings and cousins is the lack of Cherokee/any so called civilized tribal DNA in our reports. We have less than Fauxahontas. Yet we have written documentation re marriages, births and common law marriages showing over 150 documented so called Native Americans and zero DNA evidence.

Africans then are one standard deviation short of a six pack.

Is that settled science?

Doubtful but picking a Cro-Magnon husband would have meant she had a greater possibility of having live babies and surviving the birth. For a Cro-Magnon man picking a Neanderthal would have had the same benefits. Children and a wife with better possibility of living.

So Neanderthal is the new ‘N’-word?!

The jokes just write themselves.

I don’t know, Neanderthals were at least as intelligent as us, they were shorter, stockier and very much stronger than we are. LOL

Native American Indians are neither native, American or Indian. DNA doesn't lie. They are, genetically, Oriental Asian.
I found this out when I had my own DNA done: 92% European and 8% East Asian. I ended up getting nine shots of this enzyme [See below.] over two years. I can drink alcohol now. I don't but I could. Well, I did have a gin and tonic some twenty+ years ago. It was a special occasion and I didn't flush. Huzzah! ============================
Oriental Asians have a deficiency in Acetylcholinesterase (HGNC symbol ACHE; EC 3.1. 1.7), also known as AChE or acetylhydrolase, is the primary cholinesterase in the body. It is an enzyme that catalyzes the breakdown of acetylcholine and of some other choline esters that function as neurotransmitters.

In English it takes care of booze. Since the erstwhile "native american indians" had/have a deficiency in this enzyme we now know why they couldn't handle the white man's "fire water," alcohol.
All Oriental Asians have this deficiency,

Caucasian Asians: Indians, Pakistanis and Sri Lankans, have NO deficiency in this enzyme and can drink alcohol with no side effects.
They are also as HAIRY as Oriental Asians are NOT.

I do have a nephew who has to shave his eyelids. He is the hairiest person I have ever seen. He is a bat-guano crazy antifa type, but he’s family. What can you do?

So if GEICO makes any new caveman commercials, they will have to have a black caveman or they are racist?
