There's most likely other spots, but here's the Giles quote from BotN.
One used to get the impression Neanderthals were thought of as pre-dating humans as part of an evolutionary chain. Now that theory is being challenged. Nevertheless, I think that's what Giles is saying.
Here's a definition of primordial. "Being or happening first in sequence of time; original."

The Master was definitely of a different sort, after he had risen and he was saying to Luke ' let my soul be your soul'.
....I thought that the evil vampires didn't have a soul....
A big thing was made about Angel being the first vampire with a soul. Darla was piXXed, extremely upset that Angelus had a soul, but she was okay with the Master having one ? huh !.
To fit in with the whole 'history' of vampires, if the Master had a soul then it would have been impossible for him to be a vampire.
Oh, the reason why vampires don't have cloven hands anymore is due to them having a bugger of a time getting gloves to fit.
Good thing there's no comparison with the film 'cos Lothos's left hand man [tee-hee] was over a 1000 years old.

Actually ILLYRIAN, you do bring up a good point. The film's Lothos we can disregard, but Lothos from the Origin comic book IS supposed to be canon.
The first few panels of issue 1 we are shown Lothos killing a Slayer during the Dark Ages (which ended roughly about 1,000AD) and he hints that this is not his first Slayer victim. From this we can gather that he is at least 1,000 years old.
In the comic all the vampire's features are more beastial than in the TV show, but Lothos in particular, while his normal appearance is very human, when he vamp-faces his facial lay-out changes considerably. See the picture below:
