The Denisovans, a strange extinct hominid tribe closely linked to Neanderthals, didn't leave much in fossil evidence. Three additional fossils have been discovered in their former stomping grounds in Siberia, making them the oldest species ever found.

The style of the stone tools discovered, such as scraping implements for manipulating animal skins, could not be linked to any known lithic tradition. According to the researchers, the Denisovans hunted bison, deer, gazelle, antelope, and woolly rhinoceros in a subsistence pattern that lasted thousands of years, according to the researchers, who lived near the Anui river and occupied the caves during a warm era.

These three Denisovan bones and Denisova Cave, in general, are expected to provide further scientific discoveries in the future. We're slowly but steadily learning more about these exceptional people.
