I'm not telling you it's wrong, I'm just asking for a clear definition. You do understand that even your beloved dictionary.com offers several definitions, right? It would be helpful to know which one you are going by.

This just better illustrates my point anyways. The homo erectus is on the left, neanderthal in the middle, sapien on the right. One can clearly see the evolution away from the homo erectus here, and the movement towards more neotenous traits.
How so? Again, keep in mind that the neanderthal skull isn't necessarily the middle of the story here.
