People in New Guinea and the Pacific Islands have traces of Denisovian genes. The Tibetans have a 'high altitude' gene that comes from the Denisovans too.

If only the Western powers had offered Denisov more support, Lenin’s USSR could have been strangled in its cradle...

Of all the species of humans that ever existed only one survived.

“something with an Asian flavor but closely related to Neandertals.”

Maybe Denisovans was related to the current Denny’s restaurant chain.

‘The Denisovans’. Season 1, episode 12: Mister Spok fondles the skull of a Denisovan maiden and remarks,”Fascinating. I could place my beer on top of her head.”

If they find a pair of testicles, contact Paul Ryan. He needs them.

Thanks for posting, blam.

I’m a big fan of Denisovans, first read about them in The Siberian Times, which also had, and perhaps still has, many photos and maps of the cave where the bone fragment was found. In the Altai area of Siberia. If they’d gather some DNA, I’d actually have mine tested. According to my very rare blood type, I have ancestors who came from that area, and my son’s type is easy to trace to Mongolia/Khazakstan area. All very peculiar, since we are blue=eyed, fair skinned people of Irish descent.
