I had my ancestral DNA results back and I have 2.4% Neanderthal DNA, the average is 2.2%, it sounds small but considering how long ago it was it's probably quite huge. I also have a tiny amount of Denisovan DNA too, which is really interesting seeing as, as far as anyone knows they were a small group in a limited area.
My haplotype is H and haplogroup H1a1 which is a sub group appearing in North Africa, it would seem I'm related to the Toureg people who have a large amount of this haplogroup. It seems my ancestors came up the western seaboard to Iberia, Britain and Ireland, I had a feeling my people had been here a long time, but not how long, we were Bell Beaker people, people who moved here after a Neolithic population collapse, who repurposed henges, cursus's and barrows to suit themselves as well as building large single barrows rather than the communal long barrows of the Neolithic peoples.
