A new Nature study reports that proteins preserved in 400,000-year-old Homo erectus teeth carry a signal also seen in Denisovans, raising the possibility that these two ancient human relatives once ...

For most of the 20th century, the model of human origins was a tree: with the trunk dividing into branches, and then twigs.

Historic sequencing feat: Scientists decoded proteins from 400,000-year-old Homo erectus teeth, marking the first successful molecular analysis of this ancient human ancestor. Unexpected genetic links ...

Homo erectus was able to adapt to and survive in desert-like environments at least 1.2 million years ago, according to a paper published in Communications Earth & Environment. The findings suggest ...

A prehistoric human known as Homo erectus was the first of our forerunners to leave Africa, crossing continents and ultimately roaming the planet for almost 2 million years. But with scarce genetic ...
