Early human evolution may have been more complex than scientists previously thought, with modern humans evolving from two ...

Scientists have uncovered evidence that modern humans emerged from two long-separated ancestral groups, not just one. This ...

Scientists discovered humans descended from two ancient populations, not one. These groups split 1.5 million years ago.

Scientists have found that 20% of our DNA may come from a mysterious ancestor, according to WP. This discovery changes how we ...

Using a new method of modeling genetic data, researchers identified a split in human ancestry dating back 1.5 million years. The two populations later reconnected. The mystery population (Population B ...

Cambridge University researchers have uncovered evidence that two distinct populations of ancient hominins, separated for ...

Researchers say they may have finally discovered the key genetic change that enabled all of modern human speech.

The “warm” data in the middle, such as your old photos, can take a few seconds to retrieve. Most data is cold, and a lot of ...

"Our history is far richer and more complex than we imagined," said human evolutionary geneticist Aylwyn Scally.

A new study reveals that a mysterious human ancestors contributed 20% of modern human genes, potentially enhancing brain ...

Modern humans descended from not one, but at least two ancestral populations that drifted apart and later reconnected, long before modern humans spread across the globe.

Investigators used DNA to identify a human skull and other bones found in the woods by three high schoolers last month, ...
