Anthropologically the question of human "species" has always bothered me. 

This site, http://evolution.berkeley.edu/evolibrary/article/evo_41

the University of Berkeley, defines a species as:


Quote:A species is often defined as a group of individuals that actually or potentially interbreed in nature. In this sense, a species is the biggest gene pool possible under natural conditions.

This would dismiss the arbitrary distinction of ancient humans into Homo Sapiens and Homo Neanderthalensis into separate species since Svante Paabo showed that the two did interbreed.  The question which I still have hope to see answered is, did both groups descend directly from Erectus?
