New Human Species Discovered In China?!

In this video I am going to tell you what we currently know about the latest addition of new human species discovered in the Hualongdong region of Eastern China.
The remains of the discovered individual are given the name HLD 6 until the new species receives an official name.

    I started collecting artifacts from very rural farmland areas north of Beijing years ago, which included many (many) giant jade skulls, hollowed out weighing between 100-200lbs. The shape was not Homo Sapien - massive, thick and pronounced mandible, huge occipital lobes, and slightly elongated skull. I believe most were carved by the Hongshan culture due to the iconography set in high relief on top of each (pig dragon, C dragon, cicada, bi, turtle shell, bird of prey, etc). I originally matched them to Denisovan but perhaps they are instead this newly discovered species. What an amazing little known world we live in. And yes, I still have them all in safe storage. 😀

    Hi Kayleigh, I'm enjoying your videos immensely and absolutely agree with the emphasis on hard evidence for claims usual and unusual in Archaeology and other of the sciences. There is yet another level of skepticism to keep in mind and that is that sometimes politics skews the interpretation set forth about the nature (uniqueness for instance) of a discovery. This has been the case for instance, in Japanese archaeology concerning its connection with Korea. Best to you and your cat! Jesse

    Unless I missed it being accounted for somewhere, there's still an unidentified population showing up in the SE Asian gene pool alongside the two separate Denisovan contributions. It's much later date than what's under discussion here but Denisovans survived down to 30kybp and potentially as late as 15kybp, so it's really not a stretch to suggest that this unidentified group, or a population directly descended from them, may have survived quite late.

    It seems to me like we’re being generous with naming new hominid species because of morphological differences as compared to other animals. As soon as a specimen shows traits that are outside the currently existing range, we say it’s a different species whereas for animals these are considered to simply be earlier traits of the chronospecies that have vanished. Isn’t there a possibility that old traits which are no longer expressed are simply dormant in our genes because not selected for recently and may yet reemerge if conditions change? All I’m saying is that we may end up with half a dozen or more species of homo that were all capable of interbreeding 50,000 years ago and each likely lasting less than 500k years whereas leopards for example are considered to have been around for at least 2M years and have had rather different morphologies in the past throughout their vast range, with other members of their genus being very different from them and not generally being able to produce reproductively viable offspring. Seems like Neanderthals, Antecessor, Heidelbergensis, Denisovans, Erectus/Ergaster and possibly others should be absorbed into Sapiens as a chronospecies while probably remaining distinct subspecies as a frame of reference. I think in the case of Floresiensis a species distinction is warranted simply because of the size difference making reproduction difficult/unlikely, as well it may have descended from a pre Erectus wave.

    It is important that the finds and interpretations are examined and peer reviewed by the greater international Paleoanthropological community and not completely accepted solely from the Chinese scientific community which can not be separated from the Chinese political propaganda machine. China has an agenda based on a China-centric view in which the Chinese assert politics into every facet of Chinese science and history. They have insisted that the Chinese evolved independently from the rest of the Homo sapiens for over a century now from the first 'Peking-man' discoveries until present.

    Something as complex and polymorphic as human language is not likely to have evolved across only three or four successive species. It must have needed maybe eight or ten, aiming short.

    It seems to be becomming pretty self evident, that the simple "Out of Africa" hypothesis of human evolution is not the whole story, and that some form of the "Multi Regional" hypothesis of human evolution is closer to the truth of what is going on. Numerous hominids branched, and semi speciated, while adapting to different situations over millennia and then re -interbred much later. This happened again and again in different admixture events, creating the variations we see in Hominid populations, including modern humans.

    I have to say I take exception to the finding or historical / pre-historical relics, animal, vegetable, or mineral items and having them referred to as "new". I literally saw one once that said "new dinosaur, lived 70,000,000 years ago." Newsflash, 70 million years ago is NOT new.

    Some MSM reports mentioned more similarity with Denisovians than Sapiens, without explaining how that was deduced, I thought the Denisovian bones known amounted to very little? So not sure how they worked it out?

    They used one of the three 'pinky' finger bones to sequence the genome. That's all they needed. I don't think they have any bones they can ID with any certainty. It's all genetic. I think!

    hi, Kaylee! i think we've just scratched the surface of human evolution....the time span is huge, no telling how many archaic branches there are.....it seems obvious to me that there were many "out of Africa" episodes.....and some isolated evolutionary episodes, also.....when groups of animals, of any kind, are separated for long periods, the limited gene pool causes certain traits to be different.....no chin is quite archaic, yes? yes, i have a chin....guess i'm H Sapiens, no brow ridge.....not much Neanderthal......big chin, tho......i think what's important is that the differences in humans today, have deep roots in human evolution.....sort of a smorgasbord of many varieties of the same species.....the spice of life, one might say....pretty boring without it interesting info, Klee.....thank you, for all your effort.....tip a cider for me, please😋

    Hello Floyd. You touch on a good point. Chins. What good are they? Or brow ridges for that matter. Anthropologists look for observable differences. Trying to sort people out. Typically occidentals have big noses. Orientals don’t. Then physiologists come along and try to deduce why one nose predominates in a particular area. Big noses warm air coming in in cold climates. Ok that works. What about small noses? Sometimes it’s hard to explain exactly why that 59 Chevy had those big rocket ship fins. Or exactly why those Filipinas have cute little button noses. Now lately chins and brow ridges have been considered. Not “investigated” exactly. More philosophised about. By the structural physiology types. Anthropologists look at chins and brows the way car buffs look at fins or tail lights. A way to tell one model or year from another. Those tail fins on the late 50’s-early 60’s buggy’s did not DO anything after all. But chins? Brows? Maybe they did? Maybe they are more than an indication of our model year. Brow ridges and sagittal crests have always been accredited to similar functions that we see later on medieval armour. To keep from having your skull based in. But the physiologists now think that these bony protrusions are best explained as attachment points for muscle groups. This makes our chin a bit more than fins on the back fenders. Computer models and simulations suggest that our kin who lacked a chin could get a better bite on a large flat surface. Like the leg of a mastodon. And muscles anchored all the way up on the top of the face, attached at the jaw, made that one hell of a bite. While smaller muscles attached from the cheek bones to the chin made for a more precise bite nibbling at the recesses. This leads to speculation. That the use of tools to cut meat from the bone led to a chin so as to nibble out the last little bite. Or. That the chin evolved in order to articulate speech so that we could hunt cooperatively, better. So. Anatomical differences that may possibly reflect other changes we had already made, OR may have actually been responsible for those changes. Which came first, the chicken or the egg. Which came first, speech or the chin. But testing these things, definitively, is hard. Models only work up to a point, despite what “they” tell you. So is the chin that big a deal? Is a man without a prominent chin still a man? Is a car without fins still a car? What is the “best” color for a car. Make. Model. Does any of that matter? As long as it goes from point a to point b? Or is it really just there to pick up girls? When you distill it all down that’s what we all are doing here with Kayleigh. Trying to philosophically answer some basic questions about who, why, and what we really are. That’s how I see it. I’ve wagged my chin enough. Fox out

    that two hominin species share a trait doesn't necessarily mean they have a common ancestor. It could also be parallel evolution. For instance the mandibles of homo sapiens are heavily influenced by cooking. Should homo erectus in China been able to cook it would make sense if they developed similar adaptions independently.
