Neandertal DNA Partially Mapped, Studies Show
We share 99.5 percent of our DNA, with our Neandertal cousins ... they branched off, between about 500,000 and 700,000 years ago. With that close a percentage, you HAVE to wonder, if interbreeding could have occured, and whether this accounts for their disappearance from the historic record.
