Some 40,000 years ago, Cro-Magnons -- the first people who had a skeleton that looked anatomically modern -- entered Europe, coming from Africa. A group of geneticists, coordinated by Guido Barbujani and David Caramelli of the Universities of Ferrara and Florence, shows that a Cro-Magnoid individual who lived in Southern Italy 28,000 years ago was a modern European, genetically as well as anatomically.

Cro-Magnons rule PING
Someone help me out here but I suspect there are certain genetic characteristics that are common to all lifeforms.
It they are physically and genetically indistinguishable from Homo Sapiens, why do we still call them Cro-Magnons?
Exactly.
QUIET! You're not supposed to ask questions like that.
I’m pretty sure the Geico dudes were Neanderthals, not Cro-Magnons.
28000 years old. That’s way past retirement age.
We still coexist with the Neanderthals. They run the Democrat Party, the New York Times, and ABCNBCCBSCNN.
I thought about considering myself to be cro magnon and demanding reparations from homo sapiens but sure enough some dumb ass neanderthal would come along looking for reparations from me.
Cool results! I went back and reviewed the original paper and their methods look pretty sound.
“Cro-Magnoid individual who lived in Southern Italy 28,000 years ago was a modern European””
Probably considerably more intelligent than most modern Yur-a-peens.

Sometimes when I fly to Europe on the Concorde, I wonder, am I inside some sort of giant bird? Am I gonna be digested? I don't know, because I'm a caveman, and that's the way I think!
When I'm courtside at a Knicks game, I wonder if the ball is some sort of food they're fighting over. When I see my image on the security camera at the country club, I wonder, are they stealing my soul? I get so upset, I hop out of my Range Rover, and run across the fairway to to the clubhouse, where I get Carlos to make me one of those martinis he's so famous for, to soothe my primitive caveman brain.
But whatever world you're from, I do know one thing - in the 20 years from March 22nd, 1972, when he first ordered that extra nicotine be put into his product, until February 25th, 1992, when he issued an inter-office memorandum stopping the addition of that nicotine, my client was legally insane. And, for that reason, I ask that you find him.. not guilty. Thank you."
The Neaderthals existed hundreds of thousands of years without a government handout, or even a government other than the local headman.
Do you think the Dhimms, even their leaders, could support themselves without the coercion of the federal government?
I don't.
