Will the Neanderthal clones not have access to brushes after we clone them?

Neanderthals brains were shaped differently than human brains. Different regions were larger or smaller then a human brain. Cloning them would tell us if the shape of their brain made them any different developmentally than humans. Like if they could understand speach and had the right brain proportions to talk.

They are always portrayed as having European features because we've sequenced Neanderthal DNA and found that they all had red or blond hair, and green or blue eyes. Not because the person who rendered them did. They're historically accurate. Additionally, it's been hypothesized that the first humans were light skinned, and later developed dark skin when they moved out of the rainforest and onto the plains. It allowed them to cope better with the sun and heat.

If you're going to argue about something, at least do some research. You just look silly when you don't.
