Apparently East Asians have more neanderthal DNA than Europeans so I'm not sure the region of initial discovery really matter that much. Also Neanderthal 1 is 40000 years old, your family may have arrived in the region even a 1000 years ago and be completely unrelated to it.
- nerdponx 3y agoIt works the other way too though. There's a good chance that at some point along those thousand years, somebody had kids with somebody else who had older ancestry in the area, and so on.
- BurningFrog 3y agoThat assumes their family only bred with each other, which I very much hope isn't the case!
