According to an IFL Science report, the Jomon, a group of hunter-gatherers who lived in what is now Japan between 16,000 and 3,000 years ago, had less Denisovan ancestry than other East Asians. The Denisovans were an archaic group of humans, first identified through bones discovered in Siberia's Denisova Cave, who lived in Asia between about 200,000 and 40,000 years ago. Today, people living in Oceania and islands in Southeast Asia have generally inherited about four percent of their DNA from the Denisovans. To learn more about how Denisovan genes spread through these populations, Jiaqi Yang of the Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology and her colleagues examined the genomes of 115 early modern humans, and compared them with 279 present-day people. Yang said that the few Denisovan genes detected in the Jomon population may have come from later contact with modern humans who carried Denisovan DNA. Or, the researchers suggest, the ancestors of the Jomon may have had only early and limited contact with the Denisovans. Read the original scholarly article about this research in Current Biology.

Of course not. Denisovans didn’t like sushi...........
Maybe the Denisovans got sea sick?
Based on the Harbin cranium, like other archaic humans, the skull is low and long, with massively developed brow ridges, wide eye sockets, and a large mouth. The two existing Denisovan mandibles show that like Neanderthals, the Denisovans lacked a chin.
Like modern humans and the much earlier Homo antecessor, but unlike Neanderthals, the face is rather flat, but with a larger nose. However, they had larger molars which are reminiscent of Middle to Late Pleistocene archaic humans and australopithecines. The cranial capacity and therefore the brain size of the Denisovans was within the range of modern humans and Neanderthals.
They were mocked for being chinless and killed themselves.
Nah, I dated her back in the day. Always getting your lower lip trapped under her overbite and she never shaves. Swipe left.
You put some DNA in Denise too?
She have a Younger Sister?
Well, you know how it is.
When an insolvent itinerant adventurer hears “Its 2AM. You dont have to go home but you cant stay here,” then one must make arrangements for their room and board.
Denisovan babe. You can probably set up an image search for similar faces on dating apps if you're interested in interspecies breeding.
They do try to get on those dating phone apps. Trouble is,A) they're still using Blackberries, and(blackberries are even sweeter than stolen and adapted jokes)
B) their Blackberries are *actual* blackberries.
Hey, at least it wasn’t Denephew.
Denise O’Van. Her idea of 4play is, “Brace yourself boyo.”
Ah, she’s *that* girl...
