  • "digitally reconstructed the fossil and determined that the skull, which is between 940,000 and over a million years old, seems to be the oldest-known member of the evolutionary lineage that includes the Denisovans."
  • "Morphometric and phylogenetic analyses position this skull in the longi clade, which likely includes the Denisovans, and as a sister group to Homo sapiens."
  • "Chinese fossil sites, along with those from the Philippines, South Africa, and northeast China, suggest that several hominid species of high morphological diversity coexisted during this period, raising controversy regarding whether or not they represent separate species or variations along the lineage leading to modern humans."
