It’s widely accepted that East Asians are the most neotenous of all, but based on the Out of Africa model, one would intuitively think Sub Saharan Africans would be the opposite, the most mature looking while Europeans would be sandwiched between them as with a myriad of traits
But its not the case, Europeans look more gerontomorphic than Africans
Is it because of Neandarthal admixture among Europeans? SS Africans are the purest, unmixed homo sapiens, but then again Asians also intermixed with another human like species and they are very neotenous
