"Through his pioneering research, Svante Paabo accomplished something seemingly impossible: sequencing the genome of the Neanderthal, an extinct relative of present-day humans," the committee said in a statement. "He also made the sensational discovery of a previously unknown hominin, Denisova." The scientist found that gene transfer had occurred from these now extinct hominins to Homo sapiens following the migration out of Africa around 70,000 years ago. "This ancient flow of genes to present-day humans has physiological relevance today, for ex

The team from the Catalan Institute of Paleoecology and Social Evolution (Iphes-Cerca) digging on the Abric Romani site in Capellades described the findings as "exceptional". It is the first time that Neanderthal remains have been found at the site, which has been under excavation for 40 years under the supervision of the celebrated archaeologist, Eudald Carbonell. The remains were unearthed on August 19, during this summer's excavation of a level of the site that corresponds to a 60,000-year-old Neanderthal deer hunting camp. After th
