Study and discovery of our ancient cousins is one of my favorite topics of interesting good news. I’ll note that they say this group should encompass Denisovans, a group that we barely know about. That means there’s still another group with whom we suspect crossbreeding whose fossils are still unknown to us. We have yet to name / identify them. Hopefully we’ll uncover them during my lifetime.

Science and archeology are pretty badass.
