Wrong Solution, Guys (Probably)

Humans and Neanderthals interbred — but it was mostly male Neanderthals and female humans who coupled up, study finds

This article says the lack of Neanderthal X chromosomes is relative and depends on mostly Neanderthal man marrying (or raping) Sapiens tribe women.

Rather, the surprisingly high amount of modern human DNA chunks found in Neanderthals can be explained by mate preference, the researchers concluded. Because females carry two X chromosomes and males carry only one, a preference for mating between female H. sapiens and male Neanderthals would mean fewer Neanderthal X chromosomes would enter the human gene pool, producing the pattern the researchers identified in the genomes.

That pattern being, half paragraph a little earlier:

There are regions on the X chromosome — the sex chromosome that every human has at least one copy of — where no living humans have any Neanderthal ancestry.

The problem with this solution is, if this were the reason, one would see Neanderthal Y-chromosomes more. Check this:

Comment expliquer la disparition du chromosome Y néandertalien ?

This suggests, but the other more recently published article denies, the solution of toxicity. Now, the article could be true in the main solution.

Neanderthal men could have raped or seduced sapiens women, but only their daughters survived pregnancy. Possible.

I still think there is another solution. And that it's preferrable.

No purebred Neanderthal man was on the Ark, and if any purebred Neanderthal woman was, the only candidate is Noah's wife, supposing her daughters in law were not her own daughters, whose mitochondriae didn't survive ... but actually, supposing there are so few Neanderthal X chromosomes, this would hardly be the case if every one of her three sons had one from her.

So, Noah's mother could have been Neanderthal, her mitochondriae cannot be passed on beyond him and her X chromosomes only to daughters, not to sons, of him.

Or any one of the daughters in law could have had a Neanderthal father. His Y chromosome was not passed on to and therefore not through a daughter, and the X chromosome he passed on would have been one out of two in her, then out of four more in the other inlaws, then the three sons would between them have inherited both X chromosomes from Noah's wife. So, overall 1/8.

Purebred Neanderthals (except possibly Noah's wife) were not on the Ark. The remainder of Neanderthal genomes are a selection of the selection of them that was on the Ark.

Neanderthals of Belgium Revisited

Revisiting the Karst Argument for "Post-Flood" Neanderthals · Neanderthals Pre-Flood, So Not Ice Age ... · Neanderthals of Belgium Revisited

I have already mentioned Neanderthal skeleta with dental calculus that included human DNA or proteins exactly where remains of food items get in it.*

Here is another clue about cannibalism in Belgium:

Neanderthals cannibalized 'outsider' women and children 45,000 years ago at cave in Belgium

https://www.livescience.com/archaeology/human-evolution/neanderthals-cannibalized-outsider-women-and-children-45-000-years-ago-at-cave-in-belgium

Here the point is butchered Neanderthals, bones broken up like those of butchered animals.

Meanwhile, the twelve of El Sidrón (Spain) have calculus filled with pine nuts.

A world where some, righteous, are vegetarians and others are cannibals, obvously unrighteous? Sounds pre-Flood.

Righteous vegetarians?

And he commanded him, saying: Of every tree of paradise thou shalt eat
[Genesis 2:16]

And let the fear and dread of you be upon all the beasts of the earth, and upon all the fowls of the air, and all that move upon the earth: all the fishes of the sea are delivered into your hand And every thing that moveth and liveth shall be meat for you: even as the green herbs have I delivered them all to you Saving that flesh with blood you shall not eat
[Genesis 9:2-4]

Unrighteous cannibals?

Now giants were upon the earth in those days. For after the sons of God went in to the daughters of men, and they brought forth children, these are the mighty men of old, men of renown
[Genesis 6:4]

The Germanic (Old English and Scandinavian) word for giant "eotun / jette" means eater and refers to eating very much, but in part also to cannibalism.

And the earth was corrupted before God, and was filled with iniquity
[Genesis 6:11]

And as it came to pass in the days of Noe, so shall it be also in the days of the Son of man They did eat and drink, they married wives, and were given in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark: and the flood came and destroyed them all
[Luke 17:26-27]

I would say there is a case for Neanderthals being pre-Flood.

* Creation vs. Evolution: If Neanderthals were Carnivores, were they Post-Flood?

Neanderthals Pre-Flood, So Not Ice Age ...

Revisiting the Karst Argument for "Post-Flood" Neanderthals · Neanderthals Pre-Flood, So Not Ice Age ... · Neanderthals of Belgium Revisited

The greatest argument against this position of mine is, they were so adapted to cold.

Now, this theory, implied in the Uniformitarian view of the Ice Age and of the dates of Neanderthal skeleta, has involved speculation about the nasal cavities.

And this time, we have news that contradicts it.

Live Science: 'Perfectly preserved' Neanderthal skull bones suggest their noses didn't evolve to warm air
Kristina Killgrove | 17.XI.2025
https://www.livescience.com/archaeology/human-evolution/perfectly-preserved-neanderthal-skull-bones-suggest-their-noses-didnt-evolve-to-warm-air

One theory for Neanderthals' large noses is that they had equally large sinuses and an enhanced airway that evolved as adaptations to living in cold, dry environments. Their particular nasal anatomy may have been useful for warming and humidifying the air before it reached their lungs. But all previous studies of Neanderthal nasal anatomy were based on approximations of the delicate bones in the nose cavity, since these bones — the ethmoid, vomer and inferior nasal conchae — were broken or missing in every Neanderthal skull ever found.

However, they weren't missing in the Altamura man, so, one could check. And that particular theory doesn't work. Those bones are just like in modern men.

The facts are not incompatible with a cold climate, but the most specific adaptation, that of the nose, is lacking to show up the way the theory predicted. So, while Evolutionary anthropologists do have their view on how it still fits their overall narrative ...

Rather than viewing the Neanderthal nose as a unique adaptation to cold weather, it is better to understand it as an efficient way to change the temperature and humidity of the inhaled air required to run Neanderthals' massive bodies. Numerous environmental pressures and physical constraints likely helped shape the Neanderthal face, Buzi said, "resulting in a model alternative to ours, yet perfectly functional for the harsh climate of the European Late Pleistocene."

... we have one less proof. Rae noted that Northern European and Arctic members of the current post-Flood humanity, all of which is classified as "Homo sapiens" (that being his choice of words) both lack broad noses. So, the non-broad nose of Neanderthals could have been an adaption, not to the locally Arctic conditions of the Ice Age, in the early post-Flood world, but to pre-Flood conditions not unlike Northern Europe./HGL
