The 11 pages that link to Neanderthal admixture, each with the reason it gives.

• Homo sapiensRelated: It shows that dispersing Homo sapiens sometimes exchanged genes with other human species.

• ArchaeogeneticsBroader topic: Ancient genomes revealed gene flow between Neanderthals and ancestors of living humans.

• Human genetic variationBroader topic: Archaic interbreeding added distinct inherited variants to many populations outside Africa.

• Recent African origin of modern humansRelated: It demonstrates that replacement was incomplete and included gene flow.

• Denisovan admixtureCompared with: It is another major archaic contribution, with a broader distribution outside Africa.

• Neanderthal genome projectRelated: Genome comparisons revealed Neanderthal ancestry in many living human populations.

• Svante PääboRelated: Genome comparisons by Pääbo’s team revealed interbreeding between Neanderthals and modern humans.

• PolygenismBroader topic: It shows that human ancestry includes mixture among distinct populations, not separate origins of modern races.

• Multiregional origin of modern humansBroader topic: Genetic exchange with archaic humans illustrates how interbreeding can accompany population history.

• Early human migrationsRelated: It records contact between migrating Homo sapiens and established Eurasian populations.

• Early modern humanRelated: Some early populations moving into Eurasia encountered Neanderthals and exchanged genes.
