About the Video

Fifty thousand years ago we were not the only species of humans on the Earth. There were at least four others, including the Neanderthals and the mysterious Denisovans, discovered in a cave in Siberia in 2010. In this talk Tom will discuss what happened when modern humans left Africa and whether we encountered these lost groups. Why is it that we are the only ones who did not disappear into extinction?
