Neanderthal culture and society has already been shown to be extremely aggressive and xenophobic toward anyone who was different in culture or physical appearance from themselves. There are both theoretical reasons, and also actual cultural/religious evidence, indicating that "strongly Neanderthaloid" people have an anti-feminist mindset and tend to worship male sky gods, not female Earth Mothers. The evidence is too complex and too specialized to cover in this Appendix, and can only be touched upon (if it is mentioned at all) in a book about "The Jesus Voyage".
But there is one Neanderthal characteristic that is not shared by any other fossil or living human population. This must be explained at least superficially if we are to understand Western civilization. And it may also be of crucial importance to an understanding of the Western World's religious history. Although literally dozens of "Ice Age" Neanderthal cave sites and rock shelters have been excavated and investigated, not one Neanderthal cave painting has ever been found.
Although they were large-brained and "intelligent", their intelligence was not artistic or creative in a visual way. This makes Neanderthal intelligence and mental orientation significantly different from all other ancestral human populations.
