Archaic Humans Outside of Africa 30,000 Years Ago

Posted: 30 Dec 2010 07:54 PM PST

“Researchers have discovered evidence of a distinct group of “archaic” humans existing outside of Africa more than 30,000 years ago at a time when Neanderthals are thought to have dominated Europe and Asia. But genetic testing shows that members of this new group were not Neanderthals, and they interbred with the ancestors of some modern humans who are alive today.” Quoted from the National Science Foundation press release.
