Scientists studied DNA samples of the nucleus and mitochondria of human foot bones in Tianyuan Cave, China, which was found in 2003. Scientists genetic profiling of human fossils and compare with today.
Results showed that there is a relationship between human genetic Tianyuan Cave and Asian and Native American peoples. According to scientists, people from China are living in a period of evolution and spread of a very interesting man. "People are living in an important transition in the evolution of modern humans when humans have similarities with early humans such as Neanderthals, Neanderthals rid of, as well as the later Denisovan extinct," said Svante Paabo, head of the research team from the Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology, in Leipzig So far, scientists have found some human remains from the past Eurasia 40,000-50,000 years ago. However, the genetic relationship between modern man and the moment it is not yet known with certainty.
"Further analysis with other fossils of early modern humans in Eurasia will help complete our understanding of when and how modern humans spread across Europe and Asia," said Paabo like AFP quoted analysis also reveals that the proportion of Neanderthal genetic and acquired human Denisovan China is not much higher than today's modern man.
