Denisovans, A Mysterious Form Of Ancient Humans, Are Traced to Tibet

The Xiahe mandible was originally found in 1980 in Baishiya Karst Cave. New research links it to the little-known Denisovans, a group of now-extinct hominins.

Until now, the only Denisovan remains came from a cave called Denisova in Siberia. The new find is "much more complete," one expert says.
