Who are Denisovans, or 'Dragon Man', whose face has finally been discovered after 400,000 years with the help of dental plaque

Scientists have linked Denisovan DNA to the "Dragon Man" skull, giving ancient relatives a physical form. Fossils found across Asia suggest Denisovans spread widely and adapted to diverse environments. Ancient interbreeding with Neanderthals and modern humans left a genetic legacy. This ancient mixing provided beneficial genes for survival in challenging regions. The reasons for their eventual extinction remain a scientific mystery.
