No, this is a common misunderstanding. Neanderthals did live at the same time as our ancestors did and they also shared a common ancestry with modern humans however, they are not an ancestor of modern humans. They are in fact a different species.

No, more like our cousins. We and neanderthals share a common ancestor.
But we did interbreed to an extent, which is why we have tiny amounts of neanderthal DNA. Not ancestry, but evidence of intermingling.
Neanderthals were a separate species of hominins that lived alongside early modern humans. While they were closely related to us, they are not classified as human beings but rather a distinct branch of the human evolutionary tree.

∙ 6y agoThere is some controversy over whether Neanderthals fit within the Homo Sapiens label. Some paleoanthropologists label them as Homo Sapiens Neanderthalensis but others feel that they are sufficiently different from anatomically modern humans to be given the label Homo Neanderthalensis. Only around 4% of the Homo Sapiens Sapiens (modern human, and yes we technically have two sapiens after the homo label) genome can be identified as Neanderthal.

∙ 12y agoNo, Adam and Eve weren't Neanderthals. Adam and Eve spoke with each other, the sinister serpent, and their God. They were members of Homo sapiens.

Do todays human beings belong to the homo spaien sapien subspecies?
Yes, modern human beings belong to the subspecies Homo sapiens sapiens. This classification distinguishes us from other extinct human species like Neanderthals or Denisovans.
What made neanderthals human-like?
Neanderthals had similar physical characteristics to modern humans, such as large brains, sophisticated tool-making abilities, and the ability to communicate. They also engaged in symbolic behavior, created art, and buried their dead, suggesting they had complex social structures and cultural practices. These traits indicate a level of cognitive and behavioral complexity that is characteristic of human-like beings.
What does seres humanos mean?
"Seres humanos" is the Spanish term for "human beings" or "human beings." It refers to individuals of the human species.

The Croods were Neanderthals. This is evident from their robust physical features, similar to Neanderthals, such as strong brows and stocky builds, as depicted in the animated movie.

How do you use Neanderthal in a sentence?
Human beings are like Neanderthals in the sense that they both walk, but humans are much more advanced.
Do todays human beings belong to the homo spaien sapien subspecies?
Yes, modern human beings belong to the subspecies Homo sapiens sapiens. This classification distinguishes us from other extinct human species like Neanderthals or Denisovans.
How many types of early men were there?
This is a bit dicey to answer, since anthropologists still debate which early humanoids were "humanoids" and which were "human beings". But there is general agreement that the penultimate evolutionary creatures that are classed as "human beings" were the Neanderthals, and the Cro-Magnons. For reasons not yet clearly understood, the Neanderthals died out about 26,000 years ago in southern Spain. Modern humans are decendants of the Cro-Magnon races.
Did Neanderthals interbreed with human?
No.
