Apache Indian Resistance - Geronimo
BackA short explanation of the Apache Native American Indian resistance that happened in the Southwestern United States around the 1860s. There was an active slave trade in the south west that most people are unaware of. The western states were very important in the Civil War for the North. Gold from California and Silver from Nevada helped finance the war against the South. The Indians were in the path of the expanding valuable mineral hunt and settlement. One tribe that fought this expansion were the Apaches. First the Mescalero and then the Chiricahua. The Apache bands were led by Cochise, Victorio, the Chiricahua band was led by famous Geronimo. Geronimo led the most famous Native American resistance and it cost the U.S. government over $40 Million dollars to kill 100 Indians. Geronimo was caught and forced to live in the Southeast where many of the Apaches died. Geronimo died as a captive in 1909 in Oklahoma, far from his mountain home. The speakers are Bob Haozous, a Chiricahua artist and Grace McNeley a Navajo cultural leader.

Amzing how much variation came about purely in that short period and only in the range of the Neanderthals ;-)
See we are now argeed that they were the first humans - i.e. an animal that controls fire, hunts in groups and cares for their sick. I am truly humbled.

This subject about our species and their different branches is of course interesting .
Combing back to the point where Europeans dominated the world during the colonial age , we will see that it was not because of genetic differences , but the difference in people's mindset . The Renaissance paved the way for European supremacy , because people could think freely and not be bound by religious dogma . This was the greatest driving force behind the western world and so their dominated .

Less than modern humans as a ratio because they were big and strong. They had bigger brains than us - thats it. We now know that a brain size gene in us IS Neanderthal. FACT. It exist is at least 25% of Europeans, but only 5% of Africans. Would you like a link? Cor-Magnon man had a slopping forehead too - his head was more like a chimp than us.

But they weren't backward - on wikipedia the website you quoted they have a larger brain than us. Humbling is the word. When modern mans ancestor was little more than an animal they had a culture with music, fire and they were very successful hunters we now know. They weren't the primitive people we had been lead to believe for the last century. All this is fact - them becoming extinct however is theory.

Since you are talking about wikipedia , why don't you check that page on Neanderthals again ? You will notice that they became extinct like various other offshoots of Homo Erectus , viz Peking man , java man , dwarf hominids ec cetra.

Extinct as a species, but cro-magnon man is also extinct. On the European domination since the 17th century of course that's cultural when compared to Asians and Native Americans. I think my point is that Negroid peoples seem to lack our creativity. When I stated what I did for Neanderthals, I did it because its a good theory for why we (Europeans & Asians together) defer from them with regard development. I'd like to say again that I do not put Europeans above Asians - that includes Mongoids.

Well yes , Negroids never managed to built any great civilization during the ancient or medieval times other than the ones who came in contact with North African civilizations like Carthage , Egypt ; even Native American (without using Iron) managed to built massive structures like those pyramids and excelled in Astronomy , Mathematics and Science .

What you said is wrong on sooo many levels.

It will take alot more study to finally rule out Neanderthal/ Peking Man related interaction with Sapiens entering their lands, but it does point to non-African humans having a common ancestor and either Mongoloid being a mutation of Caucasians or vice versa along the way. The presence of MCPH1 and such genes in non-African humans may well be however unethical some people will find it what sets us apart. Because there is something is us that either they are missing or that we have extra.
Leave that Bible of yours and read about Epicurus .
