Living Neanderthal­?

Yeti, Sasquatch, Yowie, Almas, Bigfoot, Ape man. By these and many other names are labelling hairy human-like creatures from different parts of the world. Often information are about Yeti or Bigfoot. Bigfoot was many times filmed or photografed, but none of these were recognized as evidence of this man like creature. Yeti was known by Sherpas for long time, before first mountaineer went to Mount Everest. Although Monks use to say, that they are visiting by Yeti´s or that they have their scalps or part of the bodies like fur, expertises shown that animal, from which it cames from are bears or goats. But, if you would be Monk and white mountaineer will ask you for something sacred, will you give it to him? Better evidence are photograps with Yeti´s foot steps, which weren´t attributed to any animal. Only because West Civilizations and scientists condemn existence of these species, it doesn´t means that these doesn´t exist. Scientist and modern world did not want to believe in Platypus, Panda or Gorilla.

Neanderthals are (should be?) an extinct species or subspecies of archaic humans, which are known to us from numerous fossils or various tools. Modern humans coexist with Neanderthals and Denisovans culturally and sexually, what means that Neanderthals doesn´t need to extinct but they have been assimilated into modern human populations. 

If in world would still live Neanderthals they would be in some remote locations of the world like mountains. Therefore these places are remote and not many people will visiting these locations, Neanderthals don´t need to be seen so often and also there is not made some serious research.

Of course, there is question, why we don´t find graves of these human like creatues, when from the end of middle Paleolit can be find first graves, but between Neanderthals can be also documented Cannibalism.

We don´t need to go for contact between Neanderthals and Modern Humans to tens of thousands of years back to evolution history. Many authors argue, that before few centuries it was normal to meet these people. Even according to some theories these people could be surviving Neanderthals, who evolved simultaneously with us in different parts of the world. For example as stated Aleš Česal „in Slavic ethnic  group remain a set of rumors about the members of the wild nation – wild men and wild woemn, who lived in the forests and mountains.“ More detailed description of the wild women brought us Otomar Dvořák, who states that „these women were particularly repulsive appearance, naked or partially wrapped by some animal skin, whole their body were covered with sparse red hair and luxuriant mane of red hair.“ With wild people had some people trade and wild women gave for bread „otherwise difficultly obtainable forest herbs and medicinal roots.“

With wild woman had met also Memmie Le Blanc, according to which have woman good healing abilities. But healing abilities and known of medicinal roots, is not known only from Europe. As per Jaroslav Mareš, in the border area between Guinea and Ivory Coast should live human like race called Sehits. Nobody exactly known how these creatures looks like, but many people claim, that they have short reddish hair or they have skin smooth dark skin. Of course it can be difference between male and female of this race or more species in one area. Sehits are using various tools and with villagers trade different things. As stated Mareš things which villagers trade with Sehits are weapons and other different products by exchange they get „unknown tasty fruits and some hallucinogenic fruits about which villagers do not know where they grow.“

Interesting is, that there is not evidence about combats between Modern Humans and Neanderthals, only about long distance trade networks.

Characteristic features of Neanderthals were sophisticated machining of stones, they were similarly skilled as they were using pendulous wedges, scrapers, knives, saucers but also wooden tools like spears or primitive axes.

As stated Simon Welfare and John Fairley in 1979 Dr Myra Shackley get to Mongolia in the most remore area of ​​the Altai Mountains. According to Shackely even Mongolians are not visiting these places. "In the valley of the upper reaches of a river, she found something that resembled a tool that produced a Neanderthal man."

You may argue, that these were only found things, which could have different age. Also modern documentaries doesn´t prove the existence of human like creature. From encounter we can mentioned one stated by Welfare and Fairley „G.N. Kolpačnikov (...) during the Japanese invasion in 1937 led a reconnaissance unit in Mongolia. Once they observed two silhouettes sloping down the hillside. When they did not respond to the challenges of staying, the  guards shot them down. (...) on second day they found out that they were not enemies, but strange creatures lke anthropoid apes (...) certain older man confirmed to Koplačnikov, that in the high mountains a wild man can be seen there. Kolpačnikov remembers, that creatures were high almost like a man with bodies irregularly covered with red-brown hair. (...) The face resembled a very rough and primitive human face with upstanding eyebrow.“ Bodies were buried. 

Of course there are more stories like this. Stories about hairy human like creature who is stealing during long winter food from villages, attacking enemies on their land with stones, or just observation from afar. Also the members of the Vietcong units met with ape like creature, which was covered with red-brown hair. Probably only valuable evidence for modern world would be living or dead exemplar or at least video and photo in better quality than usually.

The question is what will happen to these human like creatures once we will proove their existence?
