Francie, 2,738 Posted June 23 Report Share Posted June 23 16 hours ago, Pardus said: 'Dragon man' fossil turns out to be world's only known Denisovan skull | Unexplained Mysteries https://share.google/HOd90mdKX0mDRY2Lu fossilized skull discovered in the 1930s has now been identified as that of an elusive, ancient species of human. Originally unearthed by a construction worker during the building of a bridge across the Songhua River in Harbin, China, the skull - named 'Dragon Man' - only came to light when the man's family decided to donate it to Hebei Geo University in Shijiazhuang back in 2018. In 2021, researchers declared that it belonged to a new species of human - Homo longi - but as it would turn out, there was more to the skull than met the eye. Now, two new studies headed up by paleontologist Qiaomei Fu from the Chinese Academy of Sciences have revealed that the skull, far from being that of a new species, is actually that of a Denisovan - making this the first known skull of this species ever identified. Before this, all we had to go on to understand the Denisovans were a few fossil fragments. To identify the skull, the team extracted proteins from the petrous bone as well as mitochondrial DNA from the plaque on its teeth. "The finding that the human DNA of the Harbin specimen is better preserved in the dental calculus than in dense bones, including the petrous bone, suggests that dental calculus may be a valuable source for investigating DNA in Middle Pleistocene hominins," the researchers wrote. The findings indicated that the Denisovans were not that unlike other species of ancient humans from the time, although further fossil discoveries could change this conclusion in the future. The DNA has also helped to more conclusively identify other fossil fragments as those of Denisovans. As for Homo longi , however - sadly, it seems that this particular human ancestor never actually existed. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

They first declared it homo longi but now its something else an homo longi never existed lol I smell shit Quote Link to post Share on other sites

So they got the skull in 2018,done no tests but declared it a new human species lol Very trustworthy mate All this species tall is bollix,if you go to Africa now there's plenty of men with that description on a head,never mind africa there's a few floaty round my city with heads like that,there's one human kind an that's it,there's different types of skulls right now around the world,African,Asian Chinese,are they all different species because of a different skull structure?no 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

TOMO 28,315 Posted June 24 Report Share Posted June 24 Complex subject is religion... I've said it many times I don't see why both religion and science can't co exist Let's start with Jesus....did he exist most certainly he was probably some kind of preacher...(imagine if he was like one of these yank preachers lol) Then the bible a book written by men over a thousand years of different stories and rules to live ...do you think some of it is wrong...and some bits are correct...this younger dryas is proving the flood might be right...what about Noha and his Ark...well maybe....but I'm sure his Ark only contained his family and farm animals if it's real... God....that's the big question..personally I'm not convinced...but genuinely I want to be wrong...maybe God is not in our form...but more some kind of ball of energy with a conscious...

Yes I get that....but that's just a man's interpretation in the bible...this is what I mean by some bits being wrong....humans make mistakes...maybe there should be another decimal point and 3 more zeros...making 6 billion years old.....see what I'm getting at 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The New Testament is basically a book of principles, a guidance on how to live a life with morals, that's basically it, all the rest is just pure fabrication. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
