Evidence for super-archaic introgression into the ancestors of the Altai Denisovans and, possibly, Andamanese populations suggests that viable reproduction between super-archaic hominins and more derived hominins may have been possible.
“Evidence for super-archaic introgression into the ancestors of the Altai Denisovans 30 and, possibly, Andamanese populations 31-33 , suggests that viable reproduction may actually have been possible, though further evaluation of these hypotheses at present is not possible given the available data.”

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.
