This is how bible scholars view the Neanderthal existence (over 50,000 years ago and well before genesis and the floods)

Accepting Neanderthal man as those living before the flood solves many mysteries such as the following:

How did Neanderthal go extinct?

Answer: He died in the flood.

Why is there no evidence of pre-flood man?

Answer: There is much evidence of pre-flood man – Neanderthal.

Why is Neanderthal genetically distinct from modern man?

Answer: Neanderthal had only the first genetic reset, but modern man has both the first and second genetic reset. See the technical paper Neanderthal’s Identity for details.

Why do we have his (Neanderthal’s) genetic mutations, but he doesn’t have ours (modern man)?

Answer: He is our ancestor. Our mutations were developed after the flood, so we have both Neanderthal and modern mutations; he has only the pre-flood mutations.

Why did Neanderthal not interbreed with modern man?

Answer: He couldn’t; Neanderthal and modern man were separated by the flood.

Why are Neanderthal’s remains found in so many diverse locations?

Answer: The flood deposited them there.

Why is Neanderthal physiologically and anatomically superior?

Answer: His DNA was closer to Adam’s.

Where does Neanderthal fit in post-flood Bible genealogy?

Answer: He doesn’t. We know the DNA from the table of nations people (Genesis Chapter 10) and subsequent generations; none has the Neanderthal genetic signature.
