E fit don reduce di number of Neanderthals wey dey breed with each oda, leading to dia final extinction, according to di research wey dem publish for di journal Palaeo Anthropology. "For long time, di main theory be say e get plenti competition between Homo sapiens and Neanderthals for resources," Dr Lucile Crete tell di BBC. But di new study wey Dr Crete co-author with professor Chris Stringer, wey be lead researcher for di Natural History Museum for London, suggest say no be violence, but di mixing of populations na im weaken di gene pool of Neanderthals. "We propose say di behaviour fit don lead to di Neanderthals extinction if dem dey regularly breed with Homo sapiens, wey fit don wipe dia population until dem disappear," professor Stringer tok afta dem publish di study. Dem fit find Neanderthal DNA for everyone alive today, including pipo of African descent, wey dem no think say dia ancestors even bin come in contact with dis group directly. Neanderthals and Homo sapiens evolve for different areas around di world afta dem seperate from each oda around 600,000 years ago. While Homo sapiens evolve for Africa, while Neanderthals live for Europe and Asia. "Recent discoveries show Homo sapiens bin dey Europe 50,000 or 60,000 years ago, and dis mean say dem dey Europe for di same time as Neanderthals for much longer than we bin think before," Dr Crete explain. Wia dis foto come from, ReutersWetin we call dis foto, Neanderthal man with im daughter for im shouldersDem trace Neanderthal genomes for di Homo sapiens genome, but no be di oda way round, di study suggest. "E be like say exchange of genes happun but na just one way around," Dr Crete expl){kind=link}
