The famous Harbin skull fossil, which was found in 1933 by a Chinese worker in the Manchuria region of China, was not known by anyone until it was re -revealed in 2018. In China, the fossil called “Dragon Man” (Dragon Man) was thought to belong to a different type of human being than Homo Sapiens, but this kind could not be named until today. In a new research published last week, DNA and bone samples extracted from the Harbin Skull’s tooth plate and the skull belonging to the missing human species with the least information about the dental plaque was also certain. According to the research, Denisovanlar have a brain volume as modern man and thick eyebrow protrusion and nose structure like Neanderthals. It was revealed that the lost relatives of humanity also live in a state of difficult environmental conditions in most Asia.
Brain volume is the same
Modern people (Homo Sapiens) are known to have cousins and relatives in the past, such as Neanderthals, Homo Floresiesis and Denisovanlar. Denisovans are the least information about our cousins whose lineage was exhausted tens of thousands of years ago. For the first time in 2008 in the Altai Mountains, the Finger bone discovered in the Denisova Cave and the species that was understood to have been found to have any skull or facial forms. The dragon man’s face and the Denisovans’ face for the first time appeared to look like. According to the results of the research conducted by China Hebei Geology University Denisovanlar have a brain volume as great as modern man and thick eyebrow protrusion and nasal structure, as in the neanderthals.
They lived throughout Asia
With the new discovery, the areas where Denisovans lived and spread began to become clear. With the current studies, Denisovvans appeared to have lived in a wide area in the vast Siberian region of Russia, around the Altai Mountains in the west, in the northern east regions of China in the east and to Tibet in the south. It was understood that the Denisovans thus spread to most of Asia.
Epas1 gene variant
In recent years, genetic research has also shown that Denisovan DNA has 4 to 6 percent in some modern human communities such as today’s Melanesia, Papua New Guinea and Australian Aborigines. This indicates that Denisovvans may have reached not only the terrestrial Asia, but to the seas to Southeast Asia and Oceania. In addition, today’s day living on the Tibetan Plateau It was determined that the people of Tibet were inherited from Denisovans. This finding shows that it responds to the challenging climatic conditions of Denisovvans not only with physical resistance, but also with genetic harmony. Despite the lack of fossil recordings, it becomes possible to trace the traces of this mysterious human species thanks to genetic marks.
They were based on challenging conditions
Denisovvans can adapt to the social environment and survive in different challenging environments. is also known. According to the new study, the diversity of human species in Asia has a much wider range of people than in Europe. In the previous studies on the lost cousins of man, the gene heritage of Denisovans was known to be in the Asia Pacific Islands and indigenous people in Australia.
