I find this fascinating - Neanderthals had larger brain cases than humans, stronger bodies and better adaptation to the environment (in Europe). Seems like a superior race - were they more intelligent?I continue to call the Neanderthals a different species from us, based on their distinctive skeletons and skulls; others feel that the recent evidence of interbreeding and increasing evidence of sophisticated behaviour mean that we should merge them, and the Denisovans, into our species.

Skeletal remains show that their larynx was located higher up in the neck, which means the range of sounds they could produce would have been limited compared to humans. Maybe this is the main reason they lost out.
