What Scientists Keep Finding in Australia's Queensland Is Rewriting Everything We Know

Scientists sequencing Aboriginal Australian DNA found something they could not explain. A genetic signal that does not match Neanderthals. A genetic signal that does not match Denisovans. A completely unknown human species that contributed approximately four percent of the Aboriginal Australian genome and has left no confirmed bones, no confirmed tools, and no confirmed physical trace anywhere on Earth. Researchers have confirmed it is real. They have named it Extinct Hominid 1. They cannot tell you what it looked like or where it lived.
