Meet Denny, the ancient mixed-heritage mystery girl

...

One suggestion is that the cave represents a border outpost for both species, one that was situated at the very eastern edge of the range of the Neanderthals, who were primarily a European species, and at the very western tip of the homelands of the Denisovans, who were an eastern species. Occasionally members from both groups would have reached the cave at the same time – with amorous consequences.

It is an idea borne out by detailed studies of Denny’s Neanderthal mother. Her genes show a particularly close affinity with Neanderthals who lived in Croatia, suggesting that the immediate predecessors of Denny’s mother may have been part of a group who slowly migrated east from Europe towards Denisova – where she encountered Denny’s father at the outer edges of each other’s homelands.

There is a Neanderthal site in Croatia at a place called Krapina (I don’t know if it is the only Neanderthal site in Croatia). Looks like that in honor of her possible Krapina ancestry they gave her a crappy hairdo. Beauty shops hadn’t been invented yet.
