Those are some interesting thoughts. I think you are right. Homo Sapiens, Homo Denisova, Homo Neanderthalensis and Homo Floresiensis co-existed for a long time, but I think co-existence would have been increasingly difficult.

Sigh.

Thanks again for sharing. And yes, too much information for eyes and ears everywhere isn’t good. 🙂

Thank you so much Debby. You find out about things like Neanderthal DNA from companies like 23AndMe. Originally I wanted to find out about origins, possible unknown relatives and inherited diseases. The latter information is not something you want to give to insurance companies, something I did not think about at the time. Since I originally got this information from Jacqui’s book (then I looked up at more sites) I thought I give her book a shout out.
