Homo Neanderthalensis is not Homo sapiens [sapiens].

  > Homo Neanderthalensis is not Homo sapiens [sapiens]. Not the same species, but still capable of occasionally producing viable offspring. Thus the common ancestor as essentially a midpoint between each population would be more compatible genetically. It’s essentially a ring species through time rather than space. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ring_species https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ring_species
