Comments on: Anthropologists Dispute Latest ‘Out of Africa’ Claims http://anthropology.net/2007/07/21/anthropologists-dispute-latest-out-of-africa-claims/ Beyond bones & stones Sun, 27 May 2012 06:29:23 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.com/ By: TerryT http://anthropology.net/2007/07/21/anthropologists-dispute-latest-out-of-africa-claims/#comment-1978 Thu, 26 Jul 2007 09:23:52 +0000 http://anthropology.net/2007/07/21/anthropologists-dispute-latest-out-of-africa-claims/#comment-1978 Thanks Tim. Good comments. I tend to think that if modern humans and Neanderthals didn’t interbreed it’s nothing to do with being separate species. It’s more to do with the same sort of cultural attitudes we have seen in the last few hundred years as Europeans (well, not just Europeans to be fair) have moved around the world. Many groups like to be culturally separate.

Especially with the last two paragraphs. I’ve made some observations concerning the weakness of the research on another site. Perhaps you’d like to comment: here’s the link.

It’s a bit long to rehash here but could do so if you wish.
