The bones of Denny, a young human hybrid, have been unearthed in 2012 in the Denisova Cave in the Altai Mountains of Siberia. She is estimated to be 90,000 years old. DNA analysis of the bone reveals that she is more closely related to Neanderthals than previously thought. Her father was probably a Denisovan. The discovery of this first-generation human hybrid is important because it shows that there were earlier hominin hybrid individuals around. Homo sapiens, the dominant species of today, may have had intermingling with other hominins as well.
