Scientists unearth 160,000-year-old remains of an early human relative, Denisovans, in China's mountainous Tibet
But the new remains – discovered in passing by a local monk nearly thirty years ago – has led researchers to conclude that Denisovans were far more numerous, and far older, than previously thought.
The bone, found in the Baishiya Karst Cave in Xiahe, China, was donated by the monk to a local museum, before scientists set about analysing its composition. It was so old no DNA could be extracted.
