See stunning likeness of Zlatý kůň, the oldest modern human to be genetically sequenced News

Researchers created a facial approximation of a 45,000-year-old individual who is believed to be the oldest anatomically modern human ever to be genetically sequenced.

In 1950, archaeologists discovered a severed skull buried deep inside a cave system in Czechia (the Czech Republic). Because the skull was split in half, researchers concluded that the skeletal remains were of two separate individuals. However, through genome sequencing done decades later, scientists concluded that the skull actually belonged to a single person: a woman who lived 45,000 years ago.

Researchers named her the Zlatý kůň woman, or "golden horse" in Czech, in a nod to a hill above the cave system. Further analysis of her DNA revealed that her genome carried roughly 3% Neanderthal ancestry, that she was part of a population of early modern humans who likely mated with Neanderthals and that her genome was the oldest modern human genome ever to be sequenced.

Close up of pin?

Without soap or modern hygiene, she probably looked a lot darker than that.

Then they didn’t get the whole genome. If you have the whole genome, you can actually reconstruct a close match for the face.

Thanks SJackson.

You’ve managed to take a fairly attractive woman and make her look horrifying.

Researchers say it is time to drop the idea that modern humans originated from a single population in a single location, based on a comprehensive survey of fossil, archaeological and genetic evidence.

Tasty, tasty Kuru.

Yum.

[Boogieman]

Back then if someone got Kuru and started acting loopy, they’d probably promote him to tribe Shaman.

[Salamander]

That’d be a really short gig.
