neanderthals were a different species of animal than humans(though not too much that we could not breed). in fact it is speculated that part of how they went to extinction so fast is that they bred into the human population and bred themselves out. to be fair though they were a dying species anyway XD their size and calorie needs were too excessive


well, i can do legit pixels so if you wanted i could give you flats, outlines, and basic shading if you want to smooth them out though they would look more like call of glory

Homo neandertalensis descended from Homo heidelbergensis which originated in Africa and migrated outward before changing enough to be considered a distinct species. Species aren't cleanly little well-defined things, it's a big messy gradient (which is why neanderthals could breed with humans) and saying "this is where this species turned into a different species" can't be done with any kind of precision.
