Why did we develop this feeling when there are no known animals in nature that can evoke this feeling in us?

Of all the prehistoric human remains we have found, fully 25% of them were killed by other human beings.
Sorry, what were you saying about dangerous animals?

im pretty sure it was developed from the neanderthal times from when modern humans existed with the previous humans

most likely explanation is to be able to tell apart a living person from a corpse or a sick from a healthy person. it would have been evolutionarily advantageous

It's to safeguard us against disease. Repulsion from the sick and dead is healthy.

Fear and disgust of incests and their larva helps us avoid having to see the corpses too.

They don't.
Even mutilated bodies don't trigger the uncanny valley.
They can be disgusting.
They may be upsetting to look at.
But they don't look *wrong*.

Likely as a protection against infiltration and ambush by rival tribes.

The tribes would be acutely aware of small subtle differences in appearance or behaviour that give away if someone is a foreigner.

Having this feeling and escaping an ambush because you noticed some odd people standing along the road is enough to make it evolutionary advantageous.

Another way it might present besides people is areas you frequent that have been disturbed or altered. It automatically gives the feeling of intrusion or that enemies/foreigners are nearby.

IMO it depends on the mechanism of death a lot; shooting/stabbing/trauma not so much but burns and disfiguring diseases yes.

We didn't "develop this feeling". "This feeling" is a completely straightforward combination of normal reactions with obvious explanations. Exposing normies to pop-evo trash was a huge mistake.

Chimpanzees already evoke some of that feeling, they are remarkably similar to humans, disconcertingly so. Any primate already baffles the brain with its similarities

In nature, things that look 'not quite right' are often camouflaged predators that will kill you, or toxic prey or vegetation that will kill you, or diseased organisms that will kill you. Not always, sometimes a fucked up looking leaf is just a fucked up looking leaf... but the ecological driver is still there to select for paranoia of the uncanny valley.

The skin tone alone is enough to trigger it, hence clown makeup triggering it and people being illogically afraid of people in clown makeup.

What even is the point of this rhetorical hypothesis. Ofcourse we would, but the simple fact is that they are weak and unintelligent. It's like I point a toy gun at you and snark at you saying.

Uncanny valley things often have unclear emotional signalling. Example is the cliche "creepy smile" where the eyes don't look like they're smiling, or the common spooky trait of overly large dark irises (the eyes of the whites are a signal for tribe members to emphasize the direction of vision, so someone with no whites might be looking at you and it's not obvious). Or exaggeratedly wide eyes mean someone is staring at you, which is also disconcerting. A doll or mannequin has signs of being alive, but they're obviously not and so that is freaky because it's not behaving according to what your instincts tell you it should be.

Other hominids existed alongside us for millions of years prior to "human" like apes. Then during the last million years, we've had to deal with other human like people from neanderthals to denisovans and etc. They're our other cousins, we dont know if they were smart as us, but we clearly mingled with them enough to have their DNA inside us, atleast most of us.
