      this video is old news, we did not interbreed with Neanderthals, our DNA would be much closer if we did, especially europeans. There were multiple research papers done in the last 10 years on the impact of environment on DNA, done with sheep. Sheep were thrown onto islands with different climate then what their DNA was used to, and multiple generations later of the sheep they were much more similar genetically to the inhabitants of the island (humans) then when they were first introduced to the island. The humans did not interbreed with these sheep so obviously the climate was the reason the sheep were more similar genetically to the humans. This disproves the entire theory of neanderthals breeding with homo sapiens lol.

    Elsewhere on CZcams, you can find a video that answers the question "Could a female Neanderthal beat a Home Sapiens wrist-wrestling champion?" and the answer is, certainly yes. Analysis of arm bones and ligaments indicates that the Neanderthal could articulate their forearms in ways HS could not and that they were much more heavily muscled.
    It is currently fashionable to anthropomorphize Neanderthals, describing them as being just like HS except swarthier and fleshier. This is completely wrong. When you see the representation of a Neanderthal as looking like a somewhat less attractive HS, you see anthropomorphization. This happens also in the depiction of space aliens, who are always depicted as some kind of weird-but-human-like being.
    Soft tissue is gone, of course, but you can infer from the skulls dramatic differences. Neanderthals have very large eye sockets and a very large nasal passage. This video itself suggests that the Neanderthals had a better low-light vision. You betcha. Their eyes were probably completely different than HS, and their noses not open toward the ground but open to in front. Consider: The Neanderthals weren't even hunter-gathers...there was not much to gather. Some estimate that there were only four items in the Neanderthal environment to gather. Neanderthals were hunters. They were evolved to hunt large game, sense game at night and low-light conditions, and by smelling the prey before the prey smelled them. They ate the meat that they hunted in the relatively nasty harsh cold environment where they thrived. They hunted animals much bigger than the domestic-sized animals we hunt or have domesticated - mastodon, anyone?
    This video suggests that their DNA was similar to HS. But there are some critical differences. Neanderthals have genetic deserts, that is, stretches in which they have no genes where HS have genes. The scientist shown briefly around 4:40 has several lectures on YT about this. One critical desert is found where HS has FOXP2. This gene enables speech. As a consequence, Neanderthals were at a disadvantage over the long term in strategizing vis-a-vis HS. Neanderthals traveled in smaller groups than HS because with speech you can command and control a larger number of people. And HS domesticated the wolf, training dogs, something Neanderthals did not do. Participating in the evolution of canines is a major process in HS evolution.
    Many discussions of Neanderthals are along the lines of "they are misrepresented by others, they were really like Uncle Joe and Aunt Leona". Now, they weren't our enemy, any more than the orangutan is our enemy, but they were distinctly different in important ways.

    • @richardreinertson1335
      @richardreinertson1335 Před 2 lety +4

      Some good points here, however "Subsequent work by Pääbo's team showed that Neanderthal FOXP2 made an identical protein to that found in the modern human," according to a Max-Planck-Gesellschaft article. It takes more than a single gene to enable speech ability though, and currently little is known about the complexities involved - probably too little to say anything reliable about speech ability in Neanderthals. But yeah, there were major differences between Neanderthals and HS. Not only were their eyes larger, but also their visual cortex appears to have been more highly developed than ours. And their prefrontal cortex appears less developed than ours. This might mean HS had better organization and planning abilities, but it's hard to say for sure at our current level of knowledge.

    I never understood why Neanderthal is a term used to talk about people with “low intelligence” when they were literally another race of humanoids on Earth. As for did they mate with Homo Sapiens? Possibly, if both races encountered each other I’m 100% sure they did such as when Greeks encountered Africans and so on. Scientific research shows that Homo sapiens and Neanderthals look very similar in structure. If a two dog species can mate then two human species can too

      Neandrathals are not a different race. Sapiens and Neandrathals have deviated enough to be considered two different species, but not enough to make mating completely impossible. Everyone with neandrathal blood today have Neandrathal DNA from their male side and sapien DNA from their female side. This strongly suggests that mating might have been possible between male Neandrathal and female sapien, but not the other way around. This amount of difference is sufficient to prove they are two different species.
      Further, from your assumption it seems you believe two animals which can mate are necessarily from the same species, which is not true. There are many cases of crossbreeding between different species, like mules born between horses and donkeys

It even out ranked some of my European stats. Both parents were in that high Neanderthal DNA bracket too. Apparently we're still out here, we just didn't know it. I dont know that being any percentage Neanderthal is a good thing, lol. Pretty sure there were 2 big factors to their ultimate demise. One being humans, or more so breeding with them. The 2nd is inbreeding... ya know, when they weren't outbreeding themselves...

      Ironic in Africa there so many tribes cuz they didnjt mix much but fought i.e tribal warefare yet wud mate with Neanderthals. I personally think Autism/Neanderthals/Hybrids led the way in breeding due to their open mindness and logic in cooperating with other tribes and species as they knew it wud evovle them. Just like Da Vinci, Jesus, Ghandi etc (Autistics/ADHDers) took socitoes forward and changed them for better.Hence why the most intelligent people are Autistics who's Neanderthal DNA influenced their traits more. (Similar trait). Hence also why many Autistics are mixed enthnicties more then non-Autistics, mixing makes u more evolved.

    • @Ash-ow5yc
      @Ash-ow5yc Před 3 lety +2

      scarletglitter l It largely has to do with phylogenetic distance and chromosome numbers, basically to be reductive it comes down to compatible genetics. How closely or distantly ‘related’ they are, if they have the same number of chromosomes etc. Horses and donkeys aren’t as closely related as we were with the Neanderthals, which is the most likely reason for their sterile offspring. Humans and Neanderthals were more closely related, same number of chromosomes obviously, so it worked out. Off the top of my head I can’t think of any specific examples, but I’m sure we bred with other species more distantly related to humans than Neanderthals and those offspring ended up sterile (and I believe he mentioned that offspring from breeding with other species has been found but I can’t remember). Hopefully that helped and wasn’t condescending or patronizing, sorry I rambled!
