Scientists Identify New Human Species That Is the Closest Ever to Us

[Michie]

The news about the 'Dragon man' came just days after another ancient human species discovery.


A newly-discovered ancient human fossil known as the Harbin cranium could offer new insight into our evolution and it now sits in the Geoscience Museum in Hebei GEO University. It represents a never-before-seen human speciesnamed Homo longi or "Dragon Man" that may be our closest relatives yet.

Just days ago, researchers from Tel Aviv University and the Hebrew University of Jerusalem identified a new lineage which they dubbed "Nesher Ramla Homo type."

"The Harbin fossil is one of the most complete human cranial fossils in the world," said in a statement author Qiang Ji, a professor of paleontology of Hebei GEO University. "This fossil preserved many morphological details that are critical for understanding the evolution of the Homo genus and the origin of Homo sapiens."

JS: my husband and I believe in macro evolution. We also have long suspected that the "daughters of men" in Genesis 6 were homo species close enough to ours that they could inter mate. This group fits perfectly that model. If that masculine image were replaced with a more famine version, likely that one might look beautiful to those early human men.
