    978-0465020836. Neanderthal Man: In Search of Lost Genomes is a 2014 book by evolutionary anthropologist Svante Pääbo. [1] The book describes Pääbo's research into the DNA of Neanderthals, extinct hominins that lived across much of Europe and the Middle East. It is written in the style of a memoir, combining scientific findings with ...

  5. Interbreeding between archaic and modern humans - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interbreeding_between...

    The introgression events into modern humans are estimated to have happened about 47,000–65,000 years ago with Neanderthals and about 44,000–54,000 years ago with Denisovans. Neanderthal-derived DNA has been found in the genomes of most or possibly all contemporary populations, varying noticeably by region.

  6. Chimpanzee–human last common ancestor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chimpanzee–human_last...

    The chimpanzee–human last common ancestor (CHLCA) is the last common ancestor shared by the extant Homo (human) and Pan (chimpanzee and bonobo) genera of Hominini. Estimates of the divergence date vary widely from thirteen to five million years ago. In human genetic studies, the CHLCA is useful as an anchor point for calculating single ...

  7. Paleogenomics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paleogenomics

    Paleogenomics. Paleogenomics is a field of science based on the reconstruction and analysis of genomic information in extinct species. Improved methods for the extraction of ancient DNA (aDNA) from museum artifacts, ice cores, archeological or paleontological sites, and next-generation sequencing technologies have spurred this field.

    Denisova 11, genetic tree of ancestors. Denny (Denisova 11) is an ~90,000 year old fossil specimen belonging to a ~13-year-old Neanderthal - Denisovan hybrid girl. [1][2] To date, she is the only first-generation hybrid hominin ever discovered. [3] Denny’s remains consist of a single fossilized fragment of a long bone discovered among over ...
