There is also no white race.  There are Indians and Caucasians.  Race is 
not determined solely by skin color.

No archeologist I know of believes there is a missing link between 
neanderthal man and modern man.  They co-existed for a while; and even 
folks who believe firmly in evolution do not believe modern man came 
from neanderthal man, but that both came from a common ancestor.  By the 
way, evolutionists and archeologists do not believe that either came 
from the modern ape, but that the modern ape is also a descendent of a 
common, no longer existent, ancestor.  People who say, or simply imply, 
that scientists teach differently don't know what they are talking 
about.
By the way, genetically, both modern man and the neanderthal man 
are/were closer to the modern ape than they were to each other. 
Genetically, both the neanderthal man and modern man are/were close 
enough to the modern ape they could have the sperm or egg of one united 
with the sperm or egg of the modern ape, and produce a viable, though 
probably sterile, offspring; but the two are/were genetically too 
diferent to have been able to do the same thing with each other.  This 
indicates, but does not prove, that both Neanderthal man and modern man 
broke from the common ancestor at an earlier period in time than the 
modern ape did.  
And, by the way, yes, geneticists can take the DNA, and unravel the 
genetic code from a skeleton 500,000 years old
    
CM>      And what about ole John Ross ?
What are you asking about him?  I asume you mean the cherokee chief who 
opposed the forced relocation of the Cherokee nation.
 Sondra (who just happens to have majored in anthropology and sociology, 
and minored in biology, in college, and does have an idea of what she's 
talking about.
