Signs of Neanderthals Mating With Humans
I am still working on clearing my head of woo-woo. I thought Neanderthal and Erectus were different human species. Then I read this NY Times article http://www.nytimes.com/2010/05/07/science/07neanderthal.html?hp Neanderthal mating with H. Sapiens.
Apparently they have been able to get some DNA from bones and piecing Neanderthal's genome they see something H. Sapien. However, the article doesn't sound quite convincing. If chimpanzees match 98.5 % of the human genome, how close would Neanderthal be? Been listening to Dawkins reading of Darwin's "On the Origin of the Species". Darwin talks about varieties versus species and the mutation of species. Could Neanderthal be just a H. Sapien variety? Is there anything on the Internet that defines the exact differences between H. Sapiens and H. Neanderthals? Why are they considered separate? Is life so on the move it is quite hard to know when a variety becomes a species? My head is filled with KINDS and it is hard to clear that out.
