found: European Bioinformatics Institute www homepage, December 12, 2017(Homo sp. Altai (Denisova hominin) is an ancient hominin that was present in Eurasia at the time modern humans evolved 200,000 years ago. Denisovans share a common origin with Neanderthals, but are believed to have distinct morphological features and a separate evolutionary history. Mitochondrial DNA has been successfully sequenced from a finger bone and a tooth found in the Denisova Cave in Russia)
found: The other Neanderthal / John Wenz, in The Atlantic, August 27, 2014(from only two teeth and a piece of finger bone smaller than a penny, we've been able to extract the rich history of a species that split off from Homo sapiens approximately 600,000 years ago; more closely related to Neanderthals than humans; they made their way to Southeast Asian islands, interbreeding with indigenous modern human groups in New Guinea and Australia; interspecies mingling with modern humans in mainland Asia was enough to impart a few genes; Denisovan genes reveal evidence of interbreeding with Neanderthals and an even more archaic hominin species...Denisovan gets its name from the Denisova Cave, tucked away in the Altai Mountains in Siberia, near where the borders of Russia, Mongolia, and China intersect)
