Mystery hominin skull discovered in 1960 dated to at least 286,000 years old
A mystery in human evolution may be close to being solved, thanks to a new study by the Institut de Paléontologie Humaine in France. A nearly complete cranium discovered in 1960 inside the Petralona Cave in northern Greece has defied all efforts at identification and precise dating for several decades...More info: https://archaeologymag.com/2025/08/petralona-skull-discovered-in-1960/

Research confirms that a nearly complete #hominin skull discovered near Harbin belongs to the #Denisovan lineage. It dates back to at least 146,000 years ago.

The #Denisovans are an enigmatic species of #hominin so far mostly known from their #DNA and a few #fossil fragments, typically thought to have inhabited mostly northern ranges. We now have evidence of tripical habitation from the southern seas of Tibet - https://youtube.com/shorts/nSHmKC8k5DM?si=AD9SjHeNiim5meAR #Anthropology

wow - this expands the realm of #Denisovans a lot.

New Paper Alert!
Toumaï not a biped? Say it aint so?
The new analysis points to the idea he was not an obligate biped!

"Seventy thousand years ago, the sea level was much lower than today. #Australia, #NewGuinea, and #Tasmania formed a connected landmass known as #Sahul. Around this time the first humans arrived in Sahul, a place previously devoid of any #hominin species."

As I end my sabbatical in #Aarhus, I finally visited the amazing #Moesgaard museum. The #hominin section was small but the life sized reconstructions on the stairs are truly amazing. #Archaeology
