New Findings Unveil Denisovans' Resilient Survival on Tibetan Plateau

Recent studies reveal Denisovans thrived in harsh conditions, utilizing diverse animal resources for over 100,000 years.

Researchers analyzed animal bone fragments from Baishiya Karst Cave, revealing Denisovans' hunting and processing skills.
A rib bone fragment dating between 48,000 and 32,000 years ago suggests Denisovans lived more recently than previously thought.
Denisovans utilized a wide range of animals, from woolly rhinos to blue sheep, for food, tools, and clothing.
The study highlights Denisovans' adaptability to extreme environments and their long-term occupation of the Tibetan Plateau.
Future research may uncover interactions between Denisovans and modern humans in the region.
