The researchers say this is evidence of "strong gene flow” between Neanderthals and early modern humans – they were interbreeding rather a lot. ... This time, the interbreeding is likely to have happened between 270,000 and 100,000 years ago, when humans were mostly confined to Africa.
Could humans breed with Neanderthals?
It is also possible that while interbreeding between Neanderthal males and human females could have produced fertile offspring, interbreeding between Neanderthal females and modern human males might not have produced fertile offspring, which would mean that the Neanderthal mtDNA could not be passed down.
Could Neanderthals and humans talk to each other?
Our cousins' ears were tuned to the frequencies used in human communication. Humans were thought to have spoken language unlike any other species on Earth. By using high-resolution CT scans, they created virtual 3D models of the ear structures of each species. ...
