i read a cool sci fi story where they postulated that Neanderthals died out because they were built too hardy. So they had bigger bones, weighed more and took more energy(food) to maintain.

They made some neanderthals in a lab in south korea in the book, who eventually get out and start being adopted by people. Later on the Neanderthals go on to dominate in sports, especially physical contact sports. They also were much smarter then the average human, and started to take over in the scientific arena as well.

anyway, cool book.
