Struggling to get a tan? Blame your Neanderthal ancestors

If you struggle to get a tan, consider yourself a night owl or are plagued with arthritis, then your Neanderthal ancestors could be to blame, a new genetic study has shown.A separate study by Cambridge University also gave clues as to why Neanderthal populations died out, while modern humans thrived.
The new study sequenced the genomes of individuals from the site and discovered that they were, at most, second cousins, indicating that they had developed sexual partnerships beyond their immediate social and family group.Early humans seem to have recognised the dangers of inbreeding at least 34,000 years ago, and developed surprisingly sophisticated social and mating networks to avoid it, the researchers found.Genetic studies of Upper Paleolithic skeletons from Sunghir in Russia show no inbreeding in modern humans, unlike Neanderthals where inbreeding can be seen in genetic mutations.
