The Neanderthal lived in the Northern regions through at least two Ice Ages...I would expect him to have light skin...not dark as portrayed in this picture.

Didn’t Mel Brooks play that guy in “History of the World”?

Now they are all in our congress.

Skulls had 10 per cent greater capacity than modern humans

Also the jaws were much more powerful. They didn't have can openers and meat tenderizers in those days, so they had to a lot more chewing to soften and break open meat, which developed the jaw muscles.

Some of their first bad words would have been... Geico sucks.

I said Bud Lite..

[A_perfect_lady]

Oh, I’m convinced they interbred with modern humans. You should see the brow ridge on my ex.

Caveman (Neanderthal) ‘May Have Used Language’...

how else could he have bought geico insurance????

After living in Northern Europe through more than two full glacial maximums they probably had pure white light gathering hairs (almost fur-like), that led down to dark follicle regions. The surrounding areas would be very light ~ devoid of pigment.

This way they could get warm and toasty while maxing out on Vitamin D.

Their females would also bear twins (to up their reproductive rate) and have 4 large breasts to deal with the standard baby load.

They needed language skills to collaborate in the preparation of complex gourmet dishes such as roast duck with mango salsa.

The discovery of the gene, called FOXP2

So, Fox really is the channel for Neanderthals.

“Neanderthals may have whiled away the hours in their caves in conversation”

My wife says I’m a neanderthal. I hope she doesn’t see this. Next they’re going to tell us neanderthals liked cuddling.

[Nervous Tick]

What a coincidence.

On occasion, when I get carried away and “use language”, Mrs. Tick calls me a Neanderthal.

[denydenydeny]

while females were 5 feet tall but heavily built

Bertha...Bertha Butt...one of the Butt sisters....

[Old Seadog]

The ability to talk doesn’t indicate intelligence. Just look at out politicians.

[Drammach]

Scientists who have been trawling through the DNA found in Neanderthal bones have discovered that the now extinct species had a “language gene” that is only found in modern humans.

Contradiction there.
If it was found in Neanderthal, then it isn't found "only in modern humans"..
