Neanderthals and humans mated within past 50,000 years, study finds

Neanderthals and modern humans interbred about 50,500 years ago, which is later than previously estimated.

The mountains where Neanderthals forever changed human genetics

Neanderthals and Homo sapiens likely interbred in the Zagros Mountains, contributing to modern human DNA.
The domestication of dogs may have given Homo sapiens a competitive advantage over Neanderthals.

Neanderthal-human baby-making was recent - and brief

High-resolution analysis identified when Neanderthals and Homo sapiens interbred around 60,000 years ago for a brief period in evolutionary terms.
