Not in any real sense. Neanderthal man and "Modern" man, shared the earth until about 15 or 20 thousand years ago when Neanderthal man more or less died out. Theories vary as to why they did, ranging from being wiped out by modern man, to disease, starvation and so on.

The Geico commercials notwithstanding, Neanderthal man is no more.

Modern research, however, has found Neanderthal DNA is non-African populations.
more easily understandable answer:

Up to this point, scientist belive the Neanderthal population went extinct around 15,000 years ago. Some other people say Neanderthals evolved into the Europeans of today, or they could of interbread with modern humans but there is no real evidence to support those two theories. "
