Document Summary
Limitations: modern dna is not comprehensive and remnants of neanderthal dna in humans could have other ancient sources. Violence and competition go hand in hand. Hybrid offspring may have been more fit. No abundance of food sources have to each other. Climate oscillates periods of low temperatures less resources available. Conditions can be catalyst for the other hypotheses. Examine soil records prove climate change as a more reasonable explanation. Differences in geographic location unlikely to compete against each other. Smaller population, humans were smarter odds were against.
