A mitochondrial genome sequence of a hominin from Sima de los Huesos
Open accessAbstract
Excavations of a complex of caves in the Sierra de Atapuerca in northern Spain have unearthed hominin fossils that range in age from the early Pleistocene to the Holocene. One of these sites, the 'Sima de los Huesos' ('pit of bones'), has yielded the world's largest assemblage of Middle Pleistocene hominin fossils, consisting of at least 28 individuals dated to over 300,000 years ago. The skeletal remains share a number of morphological features with fossils classified as Homo heidelbergensis and also display distinct Neanderthal-derived traits. Here we determine an almost complete mitochondrial genome sequence of a hominin from Sima de los Huesos and show that it is closely related to the lineage leading to mitochondrial genomes of Denisovans, an eastern Eurasian sister group to Neanderthals. Our results pave the way for DNA research on hominins from the Middle Pleistocene.

Recent palaeo-genetic studies have hinted at a more explicit and active degree of social interaction between hominin species than was previously thought possible.
“Recent palaeo-genetic studies666768 have already hinted at a more explicit and active degree of social interaction between hominin species than was previously thought possible.”
From Assessing the calorific significance of episodes of human cannibalism in the Palaeolithic (2017) · cites this paper as [67]
The main text proposes gene flow between hominin populations as one possible explanation for the Sima de los Huesos mtDNA, so it does hint at contact. It does not establish active social interaction or say that such interaction was previously thought impossible. (LLM, conf=0.82)
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredThe mitochondrial genome of a 400,000-year-old individual from Sima de los Huesos revealed evidence of a common ancestor shared with Denisovans rather than with Neanderthals.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
