Ancient Skull found in China may belong to previously unknown human lineage

A team of paleontologists has found evidence of a previously undocumented human lineage.

The research centered around the analysis of fossilized remains—a jawbone, partial skull, and leg bones—dating back 300,000 years.

Homo Erectus, or 'upright man', is an extinct species of human that occupies an intriguing spot within the human evolutionary lineage. https://www.worldhistory.org/Homo_Erectus/ #History #Denisovan #HomoErectus #HomoFloresiensis

The Palaeolithic ('Old Stone Age') makes up the earliest chunk of the Stone Age – the large swathe of time during which hominins used stone to make tools – and ranges from the first known tool use roughly 2,6 million years ago to the end of the last Ice Age c. https://www.worldhistory.org/Paleolithic/ #History #Denisovan #HomoErectus #HomoFloresiensis

"About 90,000 years ago, an interesting child walked the Earth. This individual was a young human hybrid. Nicknamed Denny by scientists, the ancient girl is the only known individual whose parents were from two different human species!"

As the Stone Age covers around 99% of our human technological history, it would seem there is a lot to talk about when looking at the development of tools in this period. https://www.worldhistory.org/article/998/stone-age-tools/ #History #ChauvetCave #Denisovan #HomoErectus

An Ice Age is a period in which the earth's climate is colder than normal, with ice sheets capping the poles and glaciers dominating higher altitudes. https://www.worldhistory.org/Ice_Age/ #History #Denisovan #HomoErectus #HomoFloresiensis

Neanderthals are an extinct group of fossil humans that appeared in Western Eurasia in the mid-Middle Pleistocene and shared the stage with the first modern humans arriving in Europe from around 45,000 years ago, before disappearing from the fossil record around 40,000 years ago. https://www.worldhistory.org/Neanderthal/ #History #Denisovan #HomoErectus #HomoFloresiensis

Is the presence of #Denisovan #DNA in the #aboriginal genome evidence that the Denisovans arrived in this land before aboriginal people?

Couldn't they have interbred before anybody arrived in Australia & brought the DNA with them?

While evidence of the Denisovans is found only in Russia today, surely the group could've been much larger & spread over other regions in the past.

Homo Heidelbergensis is an extinct species of human that is identified in both Africa and western Eurasia from roughly 700,000 years ago onwards until around 200,000 years ago – fitting snugly within the Middle Pleistocene. https://www.worldhistory.org/Homo_Heidelbergensis/ #History #Denisovan #HomoErectus #HomoFloresiensis

Ang mga Aeta naton ang may pinakamataas nga Denisovan DNA sa kalibutan. Matuod man gid ni nga kung kis-a lang magmalasakit ang mga Aeta? Tungod basi sa ila genes. Daw wala sila ya bala gakadutlan.

The Denisovans are an extinct group of fossil humans who, along with their sister group the Neanderthals, also share an ancestor with Homo sapiens. Thus far, they are known only from Denisova Cave in the Altai Mountains in Siberia, where they first appear to have entered the stage from perhaps as early as 287,000 years ago (or, conservatively, from around 200,000 years ago).
