That's actually a woman. As for if they brushed their hair. I don't know. They probably had some way of brushing their hair. Yikes. That woman looks so manly despite no facial hair :/ Well that's not nice . Honestly speaking as a man, she isn't really that ugly. Got kind of a rugged charm.

Neanderthals do still exist in the respect that every human being alive outside of Sub Saharan Africa has Neanderthal DNA running through their veins. Neanderthals interbred with normal humans when they were still alive. As for who they were; they were humans like us. They were just as smart as we were, and had language, religion, complex tools, dwellings etc. It has become fashionable to say this. However there are a few problems. The first is that there is only a collection of DNA fragments from Neanderthals; no complete genome. The second is that there is almost nothing of the kind from our common ancestors the homo erectus.This means that any DNA in the modern population we should like to attribute to Neanderthals could just as easily all come from our common ancestry. Since we share 40% of our genes with bananas and nearly 90% with apes the likelihood that whatever evidence is being offered by anthropologists keen to prove their pet theories, it is not likely to be reliable enough to make such a claim, when all the archaeological evidence points to distinct populations, with different cold adaptations occupying distinct areas at distinct time. There is zero evidence for religion. Compared to AMH, Neanderthal tools are brutish, there is no evidence for dwellings, and their ability to make words would have been markedly different. And the evidence for Neanderthal, such as it is, points to a gradual extinction as gracile, art making, clothes making, bow and arrow wielding, humans with no question about their ability to form large vocabularies of words pushed them further to the west where they expired.

Who are they? Still exist? If the sasquatch actually exists, he would be a distant cousin of the Neanderthal, but the Neanderthal is gone.

Since I made this thread, I tested with 23andme and I have Neanderthal DNA. Common in many Europeans I hear.

Humans share more than half of our DNA with bananas; that does not come from crossbreeding WITH banana trees.... It either comes from something similar to object oriented design and inheritance or it comes from EATING bananas for tens of thousands of years. Even if the claim of Neanderthal genes in some human groups should turn out to be true which is questionable, the same thing will be true. Humans never interbred with hominids. But the first experience early humans ev er had with Neanderthals was watching friends and family members being killed and eaten by them and eating a Neanderthal which had been killed in battle would just have been sending the Neanderthals a message in their own language.

In appearance they looked like this .. .. Neanderthals didn't look like that at all. You have to ask yourself what you'd expect a creature whose DNA was roughly halfway between ours and that of a chimpanzee to look like...

What Neanderthals actually looked like... Not that I care about this subject enough to get into a long argument but without even watching the video I instantly recognize where that inaccurate picture of a Neanderthal comes from. It's the Neanderthal predation theory which states that Neanderthals were carnivorous chimp people who hunted and ate (and raped for some reason) our ancestors and that human intelligence evolved to survive against the chimp people neanderthals. The scientific consensus on this theory is that its complete and utter B.S. and exists in the realm of pop pseudo science like the ancient astronaut theory of Zacaraih Sitchen and that retarded show ancient aliens. Don't believe everything you see on the internet.

So little understanding so little time. NO you do not get banana DNA from eating bananas. "Humans never interbred with hominids." Humans ARE hominids. There is no evidence that Neanderthals were cannibals.

Marcellin Boule's Neanderthal reconstruction from before the Neanderthal got made into a poster child for Kum-bay-ah pseudo-religion: Ignatius Donnelley’s description (“Ragnarok, the Age of Fire and Gravel”): In another cave, in the Neanderthal, near Hochdale, between Düsseldorf and Elberfeld, a skull was found which is the most ape-like of all known human crania. The male to whom it belonged must have been a barbarian brute of the rudest possible type.... ...the horrible and beast-like proportions of "the Neanderthal skull" speak, with no less certainty, of undeveloped, brutal, savage man, only a little above the gorilla in capacity;- -a prowler, a robber, a murderer, a cave-dweller, a cannibal, a Cain. In other words, 19'th century scholars had this one 95% right while every "scientist" of the 20'th century got it wrong. Danny Vendramini has challenged a century's worth of scientific yuppyism.

Then again, there are those who claim that creatures similar to the Neanderthal might still be walking around here and there and there might be something to it...

There is no possible evidence that could ever unambiguously support this hypothesis. Please use decent sources, else you are just going to repeat rubbish. Cut marks on bones does not mean canibalism. Could just be ritual curation of remains. For the person who thinks we can get banana DNA from eating bananas I'd advice a more discriminating approach.
