The neanderthal genocid theory is a bit outdated. Actually they died because of an erruption below the phlegraean fields. Every human born in an area where neanderthals used to live is a far descendant of ybrids. Until today our dna is made of up to two percent of their dna. The mutations resulting in a low melanin levels and blue eyes are thought to be most likely inherited by neanderthals.
