'''' Diverse forms of Homo, including Homo longi, coexisted during the Middle Pleistocene. Whether these fossil humans represent different species is debated.
The one-million-year-old Yunxian 2 skull from China is important for understanding the genesis of Homo.
In new research, paleoanthropologists restored and reconstructed the distorted Yunxian 2 fossil using recently introduced technology. Their results show that this skull displays mosaic primitive and derived features.
The team’s analyses suggest that it is an early member of the Asian Homo longi lineage, which includes the Denisovans and is the main part of the sister group to the Homo sapiens lineage... '''
So... Denisovans are classified as Homo Longi now on ? Or a subspecies of it ?
''' A reconstruction of a one-million-year-old skull suggested that our species started to emerge hundreds of thousands of years earlier than previously believed, according to a brainy new study published in the journal Science.
“ From the very beginning, when we got the result, we thought it was unbelievable. How could that be so deep into the past ? ” said Prof Xijun Ni of Fudan University, who co-led the analysis, the BBC reported.
Dubbed Yunxian 2 skull, the ancient cranium was reportedly exhumed in 1990 from an archaeological repository in Hubei province in central China, Livescience reported.
