In March 2010 some bones were discovered in Siberia with human characteristics. This species of hominid discovered is thought related to the Neanderthals. And it was yesterday, December 22 when the DNA has been achieved mitocrondrial the new hominid. bones belong
to a woman, Madame X, (it is dubbed, that original). And he lived with his species until 40,000 years ago in Asia.
The denisovanos, as have been baptized by the team, was a lineage "brother" of the Neanderthals. While these were seized in Europe for tens of thousands of years, his brothers were able to occupy large parts of Asia, where they have hybridized with sapiens.
According to prevailing theory, Homo sapiens left Africa 70,000 years ago to conquer the world and replace the rest of the human species in its path. This theory is now diluted one in which the preferred sapiens to have sex before the war some of Neanderthals and denisovanos they were encountering. "The vision is now mixed," says Marques-Bonet. "There was total replacement or extermination, but contact," he says.
The party can continue. "I am convinced that more lineages will appear new," he concludes Marques-Bonet.
Finally, they were able to speak like us.
