Sapiens DNA in Neanderthals suggests Homo sapiens left Africa earlier than thought

Remains of a Neanderthal woman who lived around 100,000 years ago in the Altai Mountains of Siberia reveal that human and Neanderthals mated much earlier than previously thought.

* Blogger Note: Neanderthals were humans, and the sapiens that bred with neanderthals clearly regarded them as 'us' not 'them'.  Interbreeding suggests that even 'different species' is an exaggeration.
