And it should be moved to Neanderthal, I reckon - Ro Thorpe 18:50, 22 February 2008 (CST)

The Neandert(h)al still exists as a geographical sight in West Germany, named after German musician Joachim Neander. Obviously, you're writing an article about the Neanderthals, so I think you should rename your article to fit to that. Jens Mildner 13:37, 29 February 2008 (CST)

In my youth, 'Neanderthal Man' was the usual expression. Probably the 'Man' got removed for feminist reasons. Ro Thorpe 13:54, 29 February 2008 (CST)

'Neanderthal Man' would be perfectly fine, although in Wikipedia it's 'Neanderthal', too. And my wife said that if it's for feminist reasons, then it's okay. Jens Mildner 08:45, 1 March 2008 (CST)
