Denisovans, a group of now extinct humans who lived in Eastern Eurasia in the Middle and
Late Pleistocene, were first identified from DNA sequences just over a decade ago. Only ten …

Abstract The Middle and Late Pleistocene is arguably the most interesting period in human
evolution. This broad period witnessed the evolution of our own lineage, as well as that of …

The timing of the first arrival of Homo sapiens in East Asia from Africa and the degree to
which they interbred with or replaced local archaic populations is controversial. Previous …

When, where, and how often hominin interbreeding happened is largely unknown. We study
