They may still be around.

I saw a show on PBS a while back about the Neanderthals and human competing for survival. It claimed that in the end the Neanderthals were driven into extinction. The last tribes were located in what is now Spain and in order to survive they may have actually mixed with humans. There is some evidence of Neanderthal traits in some human DNA.
