JERUSALEM: Bones belonging to a “new type of early human” previously unknown to science have been found in Israel, researchers said, claiming to have shed new light on human evolution.
Excavations in the quarry of a cement plant near the central city of Ramla uncovered prehistoric remains that could not be matched to any known species from the Homo genus.
Researchers from Tel Aviv University and the Hebrew University of Jerusalem dubbed the “extraordinary discovery” the “Nesher Ramla Homo type” after the site, in a study published in the journal Science.
اسرائیل میں محققین نے ایسے نئی قسم کے قدیم انسانوں کی باقیات کی شناخت کی ہے جن کے بارے میں کہا جا رہا ہے وہ ایک لاکھ سال قبل ہماری نسل کے انسانوں کے ساتھ ساتھ رہا کرتے تھے۔
