As I was looking for it, and running through some of the other reconstructions, I realized that I forgot to mention that neanderthals were also broader across the body than modern humans. That broader body, combined with the shorter stature, served to make them look even more squat, more dwarf-like - in the classic, Nordic-Germanic fantasy sense of "dwarves". it makes me wonder if perhaps a neanderthal hold-out population may have given rise to the original legends of dwarves living in caves and underground tunnels, forging swords and whatnot.

Wow! That's awesome!
I agree with you on the Neanderthal/Dwarves theory, I've often thought the same thing, I wonder who the elves were though! 
Now I know who that hairy fella reminds me of - Gimli from LOTR.
I am WonderCow....hear me moo!
