    Over these few years, I've had a realization similar to what you said near the end of the video; all that we know of, came from a necessity to survive, but to also live, as they're not the same, one can survive, but seeing “unnecessary” things found in Denisova & all around the world like pendants & rings just makes me think that what makes us human is the necessity to live & the significance we give to seemingly insignificant things of either nature or our creation, we are one with our world & cannot be the same without it

      Just so.
      But I would point out although the video got within a gnat's whisker of joining all the dots between 'Why are Denisovans extinct?' and 'why are there so many dinosaur skeltons and so few & incomplete bits of Denisovans?' It fell at the final hurdle. So, to pick up where that left off ............ Obviously IF and I say if with *slight* reservations .......
      IF Dinosaurs ate the Denisovans there'd be no Denisovans left *and* no skeletons. Just curious bracelets & tools in the off coprolithe.

      @@Farweasel this is what people don't understand we don't have fossils of all dinosaurs in fact probably not even most.
      Dinosaurs thrived on earth for over 100 million years so the fossils we find are the rare occasion one gets fossilized. Our fossils are the thousands that got fossilized out of hundreds of billions that lived over those 100 million years.
      Hominids have only been about for 2 million so you see why they may be harder to find.
      Also the dinosaurs lived in a dry and hot time and there were more places on earth with good conditions for preserving fossils.
      The ice ages we have had for the last few million years are very bad for creating good conditions for preserving fossil's.

    I was just reading more into the Denisovans and I read this:
    Denisovans apparently interbred with modern humans, with about 3-5% of the DNA of Melanesians and Aboriginal Australians and around 7-8% in Papuans deriving from Denisovans.
    Now the Ainu, whom are native to Japan, have been linked to the Aboriginals of Australia and I wonder if they too have any percentage of Denisovan DNA.

      All Asians have some percentage of denisovans, including jomon. We just don’t know which kind of denisovans genomes we are carrying as there are 3 kinds of denisovan genomes: siberia, southeast asia and papua. I think me as a Vietnamese I might carry a little of siberia and southeast asia as Vietnam is close to Tibet (siberia) and china (siberia + southeast asia)

      @@TrangNguyen-tn9pb I remember reading that the Aborigines of Australia are in their own group. Scientists couldn't link their genetic markers to any of the major groups of people that are known today i.e. Asians. They still haven't really genetically grouped the Ainu as far as I know except that they may be linked to the Australian Aborigines. So as of right now they're not considered Asians.

      Yeah it's mostly fictitious, we really have no idea. The same way we don't know if the dinosaurs had feathers or not but we always envision it as more reptilian like. We tend to fill in the blanks with a bit of common sense and good guessing luck and dna is so so complex that it can unravell probably so much more than we have any idea of. Maybe one day we will have more answers. For now, this is all we got.

    • @3rdeye671
      @3rdeye671 3 года назад +3

      @@seionne85 our ancestors were once part of a single source population that developed in the Great Rift Valley region of East Africa c250,000 y.a. (aprox).
      That population split into three separate groups. First, a large part of the source population moved out of the Rift Valley and pushed across Africa, eventually occupying the Congo river basin area of West Africa.
      Later the original source population in East Africa began to spread towards the north, until those that were more northly of the rest began to push out of the Rift Valley and became separate from the source population.
      This group headed down the river valleys to the coast and after adapting to a coastal environment we moved up the coast and crossed the almost joined Bar El Mendib straight and wandered into the Arabian Peninsula.
      At that time the Arabian Peninsula was occupied by a larger population of Neandertals.
      From that moment on we ceased being the same people as our source populations still in Africa.
      They were more numerous than our small population group and interbreeding between Neandertal males and Homo Sapiens females produced offspring. We know this was a one way species genetic transfer as we only carry the mitochondrial Neandertal DNA, passed from female to female. This meant male Neandertal's were able to have children with our females but our males could not produce fertile offspring with Neandertal females, else there would be the Neandertal nuclear DNA present in our genome.
      After some time a group split off and headed to Australia, which is as far as you could get from Arabia.
      On the way we met the Denisovans and took on another species genetic material. So the children of this union were different again from those still in Arabia.
      There was a second interbreeding event with Denisovans, but with a southern branch who had interbred in the past with an archaic species of Homo, possibly Erectus. This passed that archaic DNA into our population. Importantly, this consisted of the MCPH1 allele, which allows for increased cranial and brain size. So again a different version of our lineage is produced.
      Although later these beneficial genetics spread through most of the population that had left Africa.
      But even though this Out of Africa population had so many different Homo species genetics mixed in to its DNA, the amount of genetic diversity between the Out of Africa population of today is far less than the level of genetic diversity of our ancestral populations still living in Africa today. This means it was only a small sized group that split off and wandered up the coast and Out of Africa.
      The level of diversity between Chimpanzees and modern humans is staggering. There is far greater genetic diversity between two Chimps of the same tribe than there is between an African Homo Sapiens and any of the members of the Out of Africa populations of today.
      This is because the Homo Sapiens lineage suffered from a 'bottleneck' genetic event. After the Mt. Toba super volcano explosion 70,000 y.a. the Homo Sapiens lineage almost went extinct. Some estimates put our population figure to be as low as only 1,000 individuals.
      Fortunately the climate changed into warmer more fertile conditions and we rapidly expanded our population numbers. The improved climate and expanding population numbers probably drove the separation of the source population into the three major sub populations that have migrated out and now cover every single landmass on the planet, and yet two closely related chimpanzees of the same familial group, have far greater diversity than any two modern humans have, no matter how distantly related they are from each other, yet look at how different in appearance and distinctly unique identifying features our different races have between them compared to any two chimpanzee individuals taken from as far distant as possible chimpanzee populations.
      Not even experts could tell an East African chimpanzee apart from a West African one. Yet they are the ones with the far greater genetic diversity than we ourselves have.

    @charlesjmouse 2 года назад +6

    For anyone starting out on this fascinating subject, who watched this excellent video and is wondering "Why is it so complicated, why do we know so little, and why do scientists keep changing their minds?" Maybe the following comments will help.
    1) Almost nothing that has ever existed leaves any kind of evidence that it did exist. So we must pick through what little there is and interpret that as best we can. Opinions change in the light of new evidence and in the light of deeper thought. It is something of a truism that those who know the least tend to have both the strongest opinions and the loudest voices. It takes knowledge and understanding to realise you might be wrong.
    2) When considering closely related species and their interactions it's worth keeping in mind that the concept of a 'species' is a human construction based on our need to categorise stuff, because that is how we think. Those artificial lines are extremely useful but can catch you out if you're not careful.
    3) It is nearly always the case that every fossil and artefact is a 'failure' of some sort. You leave an object because you lost or broke it, your body is preserved because there was nobody about to dispose of it for you. Scientists have to work out what's 'normal' from these largely 'abnormal' remains. More; when you seen a fossil you are making a reasonable assumption that it was a member of a larger group of creatures just like it - only mostly true, and again the individual you are looking at is by definition not wholly representative as it had to 'fail' in some way for you to find it.
    4) When thinking of species moving, developing, interacting, and evolving in a landscape, think of their presence as 'splats' on a map. A 'splat' will be centred on the places where it is best adapted to the environment, and also the places through which it has travelled. Like any 'splat' there will be isolated pockets, that may themselves give rise to new and possibly different 'splats'. Then add more splats to the same map, some liquids compatible enough to mix with previous ones, some of greater or lesser volume. Some added only after the previous ones dried out so they don't mix, even though they are found in the same places. Every now and then wipe your hand across the map, removing much of what was already there, and start again. Either building up from the isolated blobs that remain or brand new 'splats'. Maybe add the occasional really big 'splat' that pretty well washes away everything that went before.
    In short take some pots of paint and do a 'Jackson-Pollock' on the landscape, but take your time over it.
    I hope that ramble helps a bit, as an example.
    One can consider all of this when we think about that hybrid girl's finger bone found in a Denisovan cave. When you consider finding evidence of her existence at all suggests 'failure' a scenario presents itself:
    Maybe her mother was the last of her local Denisovan population? (not mentioned in the video, but her genetics were very 'inbred') What's a lonely woman to do but throw in her lot with anyone around, even a Neanderthal. So they have a hybrid daughter. That girl died at a relatively young age possibly suggesting a hard life, and as we have her remains it seems without anyone to dispose of the body - who would keep a corpse in a cave they were trying to live in? Why was there nobody else? That in turn suggests her Neanderthal father's group was in no better shape than her mother's. And so we reconstruct a tragedy that may fit both the local evidence and may shed light on wider 'mysteries'.
    There may be other / better ways to interpret the evidence, but picture I have painted would fit what we know and in turn will or will not fit with evidence and supposition constructed from the wider area and time. So step by step, often having to rethink, we approach a more accurate picture of the past.

    Great series and a fantastic topic to tackle.
    My hope is that we find a frozen Neanderthal or Denisovan at some point.
    If there are mammoths in ice, I suspect, like Otzi, there is a more distant human relative somewhere out there waiting to be found.

      There might well be. If one is found, the resultant science should be both interesting and exciting.

      @@harrietharlow9929 There is a new branch of archeology that excavates ancient ice glaciers. I think it's called ice patch archeology. It's still a young discipline, and most of the finds are things like arrow heads and other weaponry. I'll admit that I spend a lot of time day dreaming about the discovery of some ancient, extinct human ancestor! Statistically I think it must be out there somewhere. Maybe a new technology that allows us to see through and scan vast amounts of ice like an x-ray will be invented. Soon I hope! I want to be living for that find.

    We have more skeletons/fossiles from the T-rex than the denisovan because T-rexes were bigger (=more chance to conserve something) and lived for a longer period in time than the Denisovan. It's extremely more rare to find fossiles of dinosaurs the size of small humans. Especially when these were only around for 500K years or so. Great video btw. Loved every second of it and learned some things I didn't know before.
