The Secret World of Denisovans: The Epic Story of the Ancient Cousins to Sapiens and Neanderthals by Silvana Condemi, François Savatier
Requirements: .ePUB reader, 41 MB
Overview: For everyone interested in prehistory—an unprecedented, meticulously reported account of our prehistoric ancestors, the recently discovered “Third Man” cousins to Sapiens and Neanderthals
In December 2010, scientists discovered a fragment of a finger bone in the remote, isolated Denisova Cave in Siberia. To their surprise, the bone contained neither Homo sapiens nor Neanderthal DNA. Rather, the fast-advancing science of paleogenetics revealed that the DNA came from a previously unknown species of hominids—the Denisovans (as they almost immediately came to be called)— who shared a common ancestor with both Neanderthals and Homo sapiens.
This first and subsequent Denisovan fossil discoveries required paleoanthropologists, including world-leading researcher and author Silvana Condemi, to reconsider their understanding of our ancestors and their successive prehistoric migrations out of Africa and into and throughout Eurasia tens of thousands of years ago.
