Neanderthal admixture was found to be present in modern populations in 2010 with the mapping of the first Neanderthal genome sequence. [87] This was based on three specimens in Vindija Cave, Croatia, which contained almost 4% archaic DNA (allowing for near complete sequencing of the genome).
Shanidar 2 was a Neanderthal male around the age of 30 who suffered from slight arthritis, found lying on his right side. It is estimated that Shanidar 2 was 5 feet 2 inches (157 cm) in stature, which places him just below the average height of a male Neanderthal.

The Neanderthal DNA found in modern human genomes has long raised questions about ancient interbreeding. New studies offer a timeline of when that occurred and when ancient humans left Africa.
Homo antecessor may be a common ancestor of humans and Neanderthals. [40] [41] At present estimate, humans have approximately 20,000–25,000 genes and share 99% of their DNA with the now extinct Neanderthal [42] and 95–99% of their DNA with their closest living evolutionary relative, the chimpanzees.
