Have we found the missing link software#

Sophisticated computer software programs compared the Nesher Ramla discovery with other hominins from Europe, Africa and Asia - and revealed that the population represents late survivors of a group who lived in the Middle East during the Middle Pleistocene period. Virtual 3D reconstructions were formed from the fossilized remains - which were discovered near stone stools as well as human and animal bones, including those of horses, fallow deer and aurochs, according to the report. The finding has been hailed as “one of the most important anthropological findings of the last century.” “They are believed to be the ‘missing’ population that mated with Homo sapiens who arrived in the region around 200,000 years ago.” “Around 140,000 years ago, a very unique group of people lived in Israel,” study co-author Professor Israel Hershkovitz, of Tel Aviv University, told the news service. The hominin, or early human, was named Nesher Ramla, after the site where its skull, jaw and teeth were dug up from 26 feet below ground at a cement mining plant, SWNS reported.
