    “Hualongdong region of China”, CNN?

    Are you sure about that?

    Because I’m pretty Sure we are talking about the Hualong Cave (in Chinese “Hualong dong”) in the Anhui province. Which is where HLD6 was found.

    Granted, the paper itself writes the location confusingly, but it doesnt take a long time to research the finding site.

    That title… “Unlike any early human seen before” is like when car companies blast that they’ve rethought and redesigned everything about a car. But, at the end of the day, it’s yet another car with four wheels, four doors the usual drive train, etc…

    Like the Denisovans, HLD 6 does not appear to have a chin.

    Got a primitive little monkey chin, do ya?

      Did you actually read the article or did you just see China in the title and decide that’s all you wanted to hear to form an opinion. Fuck the CCP but come on
