To date, the earliest modern human fossils found outside of Africa are dated to around
90,000 to 120,000 years ago at the Levantine sites of Skhul and Qafzeh. A maxilla and …

Abstract The Nihewan Basin of China preserves one of the most important successions of
Paleolithic archeological sites in Eurasia. Stratified archeological sites and mammalian …

Denisovans, a sister group of Neandertals, have been described on the basis of a nuclear
genome sequence from a finger phalanx (Denisova 3) found in Denisova Cave in the Altai …

It has long been believed that Neanderthals originated and flourished on the European
