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." [pp 126-127]

Skulls Of Modern Humans And Ancient Neanderthals Evolved Differently Because Of Chance, Not Natural Selection

It has to many words...

[Uri’el-2012]

Skulls Of Modern Humans And Ancient Neanderthals Evolved Differently Because Of Chance, Not Natural Selection

Another hypothetical construct offered by a person highly skilled
in the growth of skulls and teeth.

What he proposed was that Ancient Neanderthals were antediluvians
who lived approximately 900 years, hence the change in increase in
skull size and changes in teeth.

[shuckmaster]

antediluvians? Does that mean they never took baths?

*sigh* Okay...

[Uri’el-2012]

The word antediluvian (syn.Prediluvian) (Latin for "before the deluge") is used to describe a period of time that preceded the Great Flood of Noah as related in the Book of Genesis in the Bible.
