As reported by Ukrinform, Xinhua reported it.

According to the results of physical anthropological studies of the excavated human skull, its owner was a young woman with a height of about 155 centimeters and a weight of 46 kilograms. She lived by hunting and gathering about 14 thousand years ago.

The remains were excavated in 1989 in a cave in Meng, Yunnan Province.

According to scientists, the late Pleistocene people had deep genetic ties to the ancient Indians, who were the first indigenous inhabitants of the Americas.

What’s more, the researchers speculate that ancient people living in caves in south East Asia began migrating north as the weather warmed up, and may have been a migration route along the coast. Some people eventually reached America by crossing the Bering Strait.

As Ukrinform previously reported, scientists from the American graphics processor manufacturer Nvidia and Harvard have developed a set of machine learning tools called AtacWorks that can significantly reduce the time and costs required to run rare single-cell experiments.
