Bookmark or Share- A new timeline of when Neanderthals and ancient humans interbred - NBC NewsThe Neanderthal DNA found in modern human genomes has long raised questions about ancient interbreeding. New studies offer a timeline of when that occurred and when ancient humans left Africa.
- A new timeline for Neanderthal interbreeding with modern humansThe genome-based estimate is consistent with archeological evidence that modern humans and Neanderthals lived side-by-side in Eurasia for between 6,000 and 7,000 years. The analysis, which involved present-day human genomes as well as 58 ancient genomes sequenced from DNA found in modern human bones from around Eurasia, ...
- Neanderthal - WikipediaNeanderthals (/ niˈændərˌtɑːl, neɪ -, - ˌθɑːl / nee-AN-də (r)-TAHL, nay-, -THAHL; [7] Homo neanderthalensis or H. sapiens neanderthalensis) are an extinct group of archaic humans (generally regarded as a distinct species, though some regard it as a subspecies of Homo sapiens) who lived in Eurasia until about 40,000 years ago.

- Humans and Neanderthals Interbred 47,000 Years AgoSummary: New research refines the timeline of interbreeding between modern humans and Neanderthals, showing it began about 50,500 years ago and lasted roughly 7,000 years.This gene flow left non-African populations with 1-2% Neanderthal ancestry, contributing beneficial traits like immune resilience and skin pigmentation.
- Oldest human DNA reveals lost branch of the human family treeHuman DNA recovered from remains found in Europe is revealing our species’ shared history with Neanderthals. The trove is the oldest Homo sapiens DNA ever documented, scientists say.
