They are a hominid, but more specifically, they are considered a primitive human species.
A Neanderthal is a hominid, belonging to the same family (Hominidae) as modern humans. They were neither primitive nor advanced in comparison to modern humans; they had their own unique adaptations and characteristics that helped them survive in their environment.
One example of a short, powerfully built hominid is the Neanderthal. Neanderthals were a human-like species that lived in Europe and Asia until about 40,000 years ago. They had robust bodies and strong muscles, adapted to their environment and lifestyle.
Lucy was not a Neanderthal. She was an earlier form of hominid. Lucy was an Australopithecus found in Africa, Ethiopia i believe to be exact. She is was one of the first almost complete skeletons found. she got their name from the beetles song that was playing when they found her.
There is no way to judge neanderthals intellectual capacity in detail.
I do not believe there is an antonym for hominid.
The hominid referred to as "handy man" is Homo habilis. This species is believed to have lived approximately 2.4 to 1.4 million years ago in Africa, and their name reflects their association with tool use and primitive stone tool making.
Homo neanderthalensis, commonly known as Neanderthals, were hominids that lived in Europe and parts of Asia before Homo sapiens appeared. Neanderthals were a closely related species to modern humans, and the two groups likely shared a common ancestor.
Neanderthal
The most advanced hominid in terms of tool-making abilities and spoken language was Homo sapiens. Our species developed sophisticated tool-making techniques and complex language abilities that set us apart from other hominids. This allowed us to communicate effectively, plan and organize activities, and develop more advanced technologies.
The premise of this question is inherently racist. "Advanced" and "Primitive" are subjective terms.

Advanced maybe?
Primitive, or crude.
primitive fish are ones that have more skeleton weres advanced types tend to be more of muscles
Sophisticated. Advanced. Modern. Cultivated.

One of the main capabilities that Homo sapiens had that was more advanced than Neanderthals was complex language and communication skills. Homo sapiens were able to develop and use symbolic language to convey abstract ideas, leading to more advanced social structures, cultural developments, and technological advancements. This enhanced ability to communicate and collaborate may have provided Homo sapiens with a competitive edge over Neanderthals in terms of adapting to new environments and survival.
Advanced could be the opposite of primitive.Current, modern, new, present...
