Possible neanderthal traces

[nikepilas]

According to the Neanderthal Genome Project (extract from Wikipedia):

The proportion of Neanderthal-inherited genetic material is about 1 to 4 percent. It is a small but very real proportion of ancestry in non-Africans today.

Let's check if that quote is visible in modern phenotypes.

Here are some artistic interpretations of the Neanderthal appearance:

Here are two real neanderthal skulls:

And here are some photos of Joan Laporta, ex-president of the Football Club Barcelona. Is it possible that "supercilliary arch" traces exists or is another thing?

I supposed that Neanderthalers had red hair and light eyes. I thought that some
Bruenns and Nordics had a little Neanderthaler ancestry.

I don't know about eyes, but their genes for red hair were different to those in modern humans.

I just found a topic on 23 and Me where some bloke purports to have a way to tell if you've got Neanderthal traces on your X chromosome or not...

How reasonable do we think this is? Can I definitely say that I have such remote ancestry?

I tested 'positive' indeed! :clap: 'AATGAATTT' is my genotype at the relevent part of the chromosome. :p

I do have a very similar brow. :rotfl:

[Peasant]

Was the DNA data released to the public? (I assume so, obvs.. or this is rubbish )

I'm B001

So no neanderthal.

I'm thinking I may have some neanderthal, in the jaw region.

Actuallly, Neanderthals had a distinctly receding chin.

I have seen some people in Norway who look like these two:

Some were red-haired, not all.

So you're saying I'm too progressive then. :(

Sadly, yes. :(

Now GET BACK TO AFRICA, immigrant SCUM! :rage
