DNA testing on Homo juluensis fossils could confirm whether Denisovans belong within this species or if they represent a distinct lineage. The human story is far from simple.

Fossil finds such as Homo floresiensis, H. luzonensis, H. longi, and H. juluensis highlight how new perspectives are unraveling complexities in the human evolutionary tree.

A new documentary brings early human history to life with a "scientifically accurate" collection of hyper-real 3D models.

In their study, the researchers analyzed the complete genetic sequences of more than 1000 modern humans, rather than DNA extracted from ancient bones, allowing the team to infer the presence of ...

In the past year, things have come full circle, as analyses of H. floresiensis teeth from Mata Menge have revealed that the teeny humans probably were related to Homo erectus after all.

The scientific community believe a small species of human known as homo floresiensis once lived on the island of Flores, Indonesia, around 50,000 years ago. But one professor thinks the apelike ...

Discoveries in the past two decades have added new branches to the human family tree, including species such as the hobbit-like Homo floresiensis and the powerfully built Homo naledi.

Two decades ago, the discovery of Homo floresiensis fossils from Flores, Indonesia, gave the field a significant boost. Recently, Homo luzonensis from Luzon, Philippines, was recognized as a new ...

Denisovan ancestry in Sahul ranges between 2% and 5%. No substantial admixture is detected from Homo erectus, Homo floresiensis, or Homo luzonensis.
