Archaeologists were particularly impressed by an ancient drawing found in one of the caves which appears to depict Woolly Mammoths playing poker.

First paragraph incorrectly states they are our ancestors.

No it doesn’t, so what is your problem?
Why are you making stuff up?

Did they put a date on these scratch marks? Some time ago I saw cross hatched marks on an oblong stone from a cave in southern africa that I think they said was around 80,000 years old and homo sapien in origin. Anyone have that reference?

Homo sapiens was in Africa 80000 years ago. European Homo sapiens with Neanderthal DNA would most likely not be in Africa.

Yes, that is what I indicated in my comment. Scientists thought they were homo sapiens caves in southern africa.

They corrected their error. Are you the author?

Ancestors to cousins. You’re welcome.

I never saw the word “ancestors”, which is clearly incorrect.
“Cousins” is a bit of literary license, informally OK.
“Kissing cousins” is maybe taking license too far... ;-)
