“Cro-Magnon” doesn’t mean a separate species — it refers to the earliest European Homo sapiens (around 40k–10k years ago)."
How did they get the age of these species if they date carbon. How can cell tissue in dinosaur fossils still be found dated millions of years old. Determining rocks, how do you know how much chemical decay occurred unless you know how much it started with, and conditions under which it remained. Two sides of the same coin perhaps.

I finished it. It got pretty wild and a bit hard to follow. Very imaginative.

I suffered an experience of Transient Global Amnesia (TGA) a few years ago so I can relate to losing memories. I was at a hospital and a doctor diagnosed me remotely via a video/audio examination. Wife tells me when she told me the diagnosis I laughed in derision and told her amnesia is a TV thing and not real. TGA is real, so they tell me. ;)

I got it as an audio book. Only a little way in. So far, it is great. :aok

Just out of curiosity, what would you decide in a hypothetical situation?
You find yourself in an alternate Earth. You discover there are no other Homo Sapiens anywhere. However, there are Neanderthals and Cro-Magnons everywhere.
You realize that getting back home will never happen. You realize that you will have to make a life here now.
Neanderthal female or Cro-Magnon female for a wife?

Cro-Magnons are considered anatomically modern humans (Homo sapiens sapiens), just like people today. Cro-Magnon is really more a description of their culture, like Celtic culture, or Clovis peoples.
Now, I'm not saying she wouldn't have lice and be a little smelly, but no worse than you could find at any local rural watering hole. But that's no reason to go full-monkey. You never go full-monkey.
