It was discovered in the recently discovered limestone cave Tam Ngu Hao 2 in the Annam Mountains in Asia.
In Laos, Southeast Asia, researchers have unearthed a tooth that likely belongs to a mysterious “kindred species” of humans, the Denisovans. IFLS writes about it.
This discovery is the first in the named area. It was discovered in the recently discovered limestone cave Tam Ngu Hao 2 in the Annam Mountains.
It was found that the tooth belonged to a girl aged 3.5 to 8.5 years.
Also, according to scientists, the age of teeth ranges from 164,000 to 131,000 years.
“Denisovians and modern humans had a common ancestor 700,000-500,000 years ago, then the branch of non-modern humans split again 470,000-380,000 years ago, then Denisovans and Neanderthals appeared, ”said Fabrice Demeter, lead author of the study from the University of Copenhagen.
In addition, the scientists emphasize that the study indicates the habitat of Denisovans in a wide range of environments and latitudes. That is, they can adapt to extreme conditions and adapt not only to high altitudes and cold climates, but also to hot and humid at low altitudes.
