I’ve had my DNA tested, and I’m 3.2% Neanderthal. I have more Neanderthal DNA than 96% of the population. And what’s funny is, all my life I joked that I was part caveman (well, cavewoman.) As it turns out, I am.
I had my DNA tested also.
"Neaderthal" wasn't one of the categories.
I was 92% European and 8% East Asian.
The 8% was from my mother. She didn't have a clue but it might explain why I like rice so much. :o)
I have always been of the opinion that my late husband of Scots ancestry had significant Neanderthal genetics. He was massive boned, short legged, long torsoed, very muscular, red hair and light blue eyes, very hairy all over including his shoulder, weak chin, faint brow ridges, quick temper and warrior mentality. He also had a mans growth at age 13. What traits do you have that you felt made you part cavewoman?
