Neanderthal points
nclonghunter:
Tracker, I looked it up and watched it....very interesting documentary. It again shows the totally wrong "guess" that all the past predictions have been. Makes me sick that history is taught as fact when it is only a big guess. Just like Otzi and his copper axe. The "copper age" predictions were found to be totally wrong. Otzi not only had a copper axe but a smelted copper axe that was finely made. Decoding Neanderthals showed that a lot of the DNA is concentrated around Italy, which incidentally is where Otzi was found..Small world isn't it.
Thanks for the heads up on the show..

What gets me is they don't update history in school for this stuff! I graduated in 2012(I know, I'm young) but out text books were never newer then 04 or 05. A lot changes in just a year so imagine all that I learned being wrong. Perfect example- Christopher Columbus is still the first to reach the Americas according to schools. Chinese already were in Oregon, Russians in Alaska, and Vikings in the northeast.

I'm only 1.1% Just got my results back from National Geographic. I watched it last night too. On Netflix, Decoding Neanderthals, it is a Nova program. Good watch.
