Does this mean that the Neanderthals didn't live in the Neander Tal after which they are named? Or is the reputation of the Neander Tal specimens intact? Anyone?

Neanderthal's status as a species has no dependence on this guy. (The ones found fossilized in the Neander Tal probably lived there, but they've been found over much of Eurasia.)

I'm pretty sure that those skeletons (Gibralter, and the Neander valley) are not yet challenged.
