    Yes.. I deny it.. Mind you I am fascinated that they can trace dna back to people from the past.. In the UK there's a famous set of caves.. Cheddar.. where cheddar cheese was first made.. and there's the bones of a man in a sideshoot of the entrance to the caves.. His dna has been found in several of the families who still live in that area... I think most of them live in houses nowdays :P

    Why deny it? I can't deny it or I have to deny the rest of the DNA results. I do have slightly less than average Neandertal blood tho.

  • Forgive me, but I must deny the Neanderthal blood as it no longer runs through my veins. You see, a good friend from a different Q&A site informed everyone of my surgery that replaced my blood supply with Mountain Dew.

  • Nope.   The Neanderthals were actually very highly skilled tool  users and intelligent according to all the archaeological evidence.
    Plus it's still being debated as to whether shared Neanderthal and Denisovian DNA in modern humans is the result of admixture or from the common ancestor Homo Heidelbergensis
