  It’s been a while since I’ve studied it, but IIRC skeletons of early humans show in general more traits we view as masculine, like stronger chins and a more jutting brow line, even in female skeletons. It was even more pronounced in male skeletons, but this is still pretty mild sexual dimorphism even among great apes (think male vs female gorillas, for example).

    Though, even being 9000, they would still be considered a “modern” human, correct? Having evolved roughly 300k years ago, I would think their traits would be far more similar to our own then “early” versions of our species

      Early might not be the right word, I think I’m mixing it up with pre-agricultural hunter gatherers (I think I’m forgetting a term here, but it’s hot and I’m tired).

      Yeah but we started fucking Neanderthals way later and there were plenty of inbred diasporas with little outside contact.

        Also it seems to have taken a bit for human ethnicities and morphology to stabilize. We absorbed a lot of other humans in Africa to the point that it unironically messed up a lot of early data cause early scientists didn’t think fucked to extinction was a valid form of human expansion.

  This is what we’d get if there was a movie about the making of the movie Battlefield Earth with John Travolta played by Val Kilmer

    SIX fingers…

    If anyone missed the RiffTrax version of that movie is one of the better ones. You can still find it on the privateer gulf.
