The Neanderthals died at the age of 35.

We don't know that. I thought about it. They were organically as smart as we are.  There is no reason to believe that they were savages. They were probably more like the Indians than how they are portrayed in movies and books. They probably had nice clothes and happy families and took care of themselves to be attractive to their monogamous partners. They had senses of humor and played. I wonder what their language was like.
