You are indeed right that they are separate from neanderthals, but they are still closer to neanderthal than to homo sapiens. The first branching starts from the line which leads to modern humans, and then the other that leads to neanders/denisovans, which again later branch from each other. It's difficult to speculate on height, but at least the skull must have been bigger to that of the already impressive neander skull.

I think it's clear they were diverse and not as similar to each other as once though. They might have had less genetic diversity than let's say Africa or Europe but I think it was significant enough . The ones in PR for example were a mix of North Amerindian more recent South Amerindian. The groups had very isolated peoples then more admixed groups as well.

Well three of my four mixed blood native grandparents had type two diabetes... And the one that is still living and doesn't have it is only 1/4 native.. The rest had much higher percentages.. So at least with my family the Native American genetic propensity for diabetes holds true. If it's from Neanderthals I don't know. I think it would be kind of cool..

Natives don't have neanderthal admixture nor modern Humans. First they only match on some segments of Y chromosomes. And even then theres a huge Chunk of Neanderthal DNA missing on Y chromosomes. They only share from common ancestor before human and neanderthal. If they mixed with neanderthal then Haplogroup Q is neanderthal but its obviously not

Previous estimates based on mitochondrial DNA put the divergence of the human and Neanderthal lineages at between 400,000 and 800,000 years ago. The last common ancestor of Neanderthals and humans — based on the Y chromosome DNA sequenced in the study — is about 550,000 years ago. Scientists believe Neanderthals died out about 40,000 years ago.

I think youre mistaken, the article talks about the Y chromosome not being passed and most likely being extinct, but this doesnt mean modern humans do not have Neandethal dna...
Think like this, i dont have my maternal grandpa Y chromosome, but this doesnt mean i am not his descendant.

You need to start citing me for my work, this information was borrowed from me and consists of my 25 years of work in archaeology and genetics, that is all I ask please
