Homo Neanderthalensis

Homo Neanderthalensis, or the Neaderthal, (Short for Neaderthal Man) is an extinct species from the genus Homo. Neaderthals are believed to have emerged around 10'000 years ago. Genetic evidence suggest that Neaderthals may have inter-bred with the modern humans, resulting in 1-4% of people in Eurasia alone having Neaderthal DNA in them.
