Denisovan fossils in China reveal an ancient ‘hunting paradise’
Denisovan remains discovered in southwestern China reveal that Yunnan province's warm, biodiverse plateau was a "hunting paradise" for the hominins during a global glacial period, according to new research published in the journal Nature. Within the region's coniferous forests and forest-steppe environments, this archaic human group established a stable subsistence pattern highly adapted to local resources through specialised hunting and the intensive exploitation of animals.
