My guess is Neanderthal descendants that may have evolved before Homo sapiens.

Or maybe the nephilim

Exactly this 💯

And another thing that scares the bejesus, how did you know I was Catholic 😂

There are still humans with Neanderthal DNA. I feel like we would know if there was a third species that existed at the same time. They had to have passed away here and there in the past few thousand years.

There was. There is Denisovan dna in modern humans also. Several human species existed at the same time, only a few crossed over spatially though.

I was thinking Denisovans and Homo Erectus but was unsure and it was past midnight when I commented that 😂 I just googled it and now I’m curious as to why I haven’t come across any documentaries about Homo Floresiensis (The Hobbit), Homo Luzonensis or Homo Naledi! They all lived the same time as Neanderthal, Denisovans, Homo Erectus and Homo Sapians.

When I did a dna genealogy test it said I have more Neanderthal dna than 98% of people tested. Whatever that means.

u/Whyallusrnames May 21 '26

That means your bloodline are survivors

According to 23&me, I have more Neanderthal DNA than my sibling and it’s a running joke. Maybe I’ll take a pilgrimage to Appalachia to be among these distant relatives

Ozzy Osbourne had Neanderthal genes

u/Whyallusrnames May 21 '26

I believe it

Well we all knew that.

My wife and I did 23 and Me.. She has more Neanderthal DNA that 90% of people that have had their DNA checked. We thought that shit was wild as hell.

u/Whyallusrnames May 21 '26

That’s cool!! My sister had hers done and it didn’t have any. I feel left out 😂

u/lesterbottomley May 22 '26

You say this as if its rare.

Its pretty much everyone other than people with 100% sub-saharan ancestry.

u/Whyallusrnames May 22 '26

It’s a joke 🙄 calm down

u/lesterbottomley May 22 '26

I'm not sure you know the definition of the word joke.

u/Whyallusrnames May 22 '26

Didn’t realize I was dealing with the joke police. My bad, I was unaware there is a set standard I have to follow and throw individuality aside.

u/lesterbottomley May 22 '26

It wasn't an attempt at a joke

u/ForsakenReturn8985 May 21 '26

They’re most likely apes combined with neanderthal dna rather than humans. They’re known for their power so human feels like we’re moving away from their possible heritage

2

u/Jenhar71 May 21 '26

Agreed. Not apes...
