    Are “homo sapiens sapiens” then “ugly ugly caveman” or “ugly caveman man”?

      Although, debatably, homo neanderthalensis is not a subspecies of homo sapiens, thus negating the need for a homo sapiens neandterthalensis and homo sapiens sapiens classification differentiation to exist, making homo sapiens always the modern man (who yes, is also an ugly caveman) and homo neanderthalensis the most recent full time ugly caveman.

      I suppose that :

      1. “ugly ugly caveman” -> homo sapiens neanderthalensis
      2. “ugly caveman man” -> homo sapiens sapiens
