Homo heidelbergensis thigh bone C018 / 6378

Homo heidelbergensis thigh bone. This is femur 13 found at the Sima de los Huesos site, Sierra de Atapuerca, Spain. The mitochondrial DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) has been extracted from this bone and sequenced. The fossil is over 400, 000 years old, making it the oldest human DNA sequence published to date (December 2013). It showed that H. heidelbergensis was more closely related to the Denisovans, an eastern Eurasian hominin, than to Neanderthals. The work was carried out in a collaboration between Centro Mixto de Evolucion y Comportamiento Humanos, Madrid, Spain, directed by Prof. Juan Luis Arsuaga and Svante Paabos department of genetics, Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology in Leipzig, Germany

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the Homo heidelbergensis thigh bone, known as femur 13, discovered at the Sima de los Huesos site in Sierra de Atapuerca, Spain. With a history spanning over 400,000 years, this fossil holds great significance as it contains the oldest human DNA sequence ever published (December 2013). The mitochondrial DNA extracted from this ancient bone has been meticulously sequenced and analyzed. The groundbreaking research conducted on this specimen revealed an intriguing connection between H. heidelbergensis and the Denisovans, an eastern Eurasian hominin group. Surprisingly, these findings suggest a closer genetic relationship between H. heidelbergensis and Denisovans than with Neanderthals. The collaboration behind this remarkable discovery involved two esteemed institutions: Centro Mixto de Evolucion y Comportamiento Humanos in Madrid, Spain led by Prof. Juan Luis Arsuaga and Svante Paabo's department of genetics at Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology in Leipzig, Germany. In this visually striking image set against a black background, we see a hand delicately holding the precious fossilized bone while conducting laboratory work. The Eppendorf tube containing the preserved sample adds to the sense of scientific precision and meticulousness that went into extracting and analyzing its genetic material. This print captures not only our fascination with prehistoric life but also highlights how advancements in paleoanthropology continue to unravel mysteries about our early human ancestors through cutting-edge techniques such as DNA analysis.
