No need to re-create the genome. The Neanderthals are alive and well, and are indeed thriving and walking right among us. I personally know a few, and met a bunch of them on various occasions, and I'm far from alone in that.

"The Neanderthals are alive and well,"

Tuesday gave us enough evidence of that.

The mtDNA Dr Paabo sequenced suggested humans split from Neanderthals about 500,000 years ago - which fits neatly with the fossil record. It also suggested Neanderthals did not interbreed with our ancestors.

Another interpretation might be that they were of "contaminated" DNA and were wiped out by the flood.
