At least with some people
Yes, we share a common ancestor. Furthermore, all of us humans have about 2% neanderthal blood.... EXCEPT for Africans. Those of us that migrated couldn't help ourselves and had to have some hairy neanderthal puntang as we migrated out of Africa and ran into our other species hominids from a common ancestor. Furthermore, another sparse population in the Tibet area has about 1% davonian dna... Yes, an all together different species of humanoid with whom we also share a common ancestor. It is with great caution and doubt that I would say that a pig is closer to a dog than dog is to a wolf. Breed a horny dog to a pig in heat... No offspring. Breed a dog to a wolf and voila.... A hybrid. Same can be said with neanderthal and human.
