Homo neanderthalensis andae

A population of Homo neanderthalensis and an offshoot of Homo neanderthalensis peruvia. They are tall and strong with powerful lungs. They are adapted to both mountain and sea altitudes. They are social and lactose tolerant. After tens of thousands of years of interbreeding of the H. N. Amazonae and H. Ni. Americae, the Incae arised in 31,000 BCE, becoming genetically different enough from it’s parent species. The populations of the North and the South are slightly different, having more Ni. Americae or N. Amazonae in them, while the Central population however are the more “standard” N. Incae The Incae are culturally social, with tribes composed of several families and welcoming of other species, absorbing diplomatically their populations through trade and gift exchanging. Their populations lives in semi permanent villages, migrating in a circular pattern between them as the seasons change, tribes that engage in fishing normally know how to swim. They trade with other tribes and neighboring species by land and sea because trade is a way of showing friendship between tribes, since, for the Incae, it evolved from the exchange of gifts between tribal chiefs.

Characteristics
They are physically strong with powerful lungs, adapted to both mountain altitudes and life at sea level, height is an attractive feature for the Incae. The species is lactose tolerant, although contact with other species that are not can lead to individuals or entire tribes with lactose intolerance by the way of intermixing

Expansionism
They are an expansionist species, the most common method of expansion is the absorption of tribes of other species by larger Inca tribes, which happens after years of trade and exchange of gifts. They can go to war for expansion and defence, but that is more common between tribes that have contact with other species. They don't have a raiding culture.

Language
The Incae share a similar proto-language, although contact with different species gives different characteristics and mannerisms to the northern and southern variant, the central variant is considered more similar to the older Inca proto-culture language.
