Er what? I'm further down the evolutionary line but that wouldn't mean that I have less of a link to Neanderthals. They were just in a geographical location where there weren't any Neanderthals so there wasn't any breeding between the two groups and they continued to be more or less separate from the groups that did breed with Neanderthals until fairly recently.
