More recently DNA has demonstrated that White Folks have the highest percentage of Neanderthal DNA, followed by East Asians, and finally Africans with little or no Neanderthal DNA.
It's good to be a Neanderthal!
I have 2.7% Neander per 23andme.com; they also say that Asians have the highest—up to 4 %. They place me in the Northern Euro group where the average is 2.6%. Again, according to 23andme.
