Bone May Reveal a New Human Group

Researchers extracted DNA from the bone and reported Wednesday that it differed conspicuously from that of both modern humans and of Neanderthals, the archaic human species that inhabited Europe until the arrival of modern humans on the continent some 44,000 years ago.
The child who carried the DNA lineage was probably 5 to 7 years old, but it is not yet known if it was a boy or a girl. The finger bone was excavated by Russian archaeologists in 2008 from a place known as the Denisova cave.

The finger bone was found in a layer laid down on the cave floor between 48,000 and 30,000 years ago, according to radiocarbon dating. At that time, toward the end of the Pleistocene Ice Age, which ended 10,000 years ago, the climate was probably much colder. The people of the new lineage presumably wore clothes, Dr. Krause said, because chimpanzees and gorillas cannot withstand much cold, suggesting that fur alone is inadequate protection.
The artifacts found in the cave in the same layer as the finger bone include ornaments and a bracelet that are typical of modern human sites from the Upper Paleolithic age in Europe. These are puzzling artifacts to be found with a nonmodern human species. But bones can move up and down in archaeological sites, and it is hard to know if the finger bone is truly associated with these artifacts, Dr. Krause said, even though there is little sign of mixing in the cave’s layers.

This is a reply to # 1,595,659For any willing to consider what the Bible states,
Do we believe we have all the answers?
Have we been sold a Bill of Goods by some preacher or other self proclaimed expert?
Have we even taken the time to study to show ourself approved?
Are we just another number filling a church pew?
What does the word have to say?
Do we believe mankind was Created and is the only Creation of Life on earth besides animals?
What about all the Scientific findings supposedly supporting life of Humanoids 10-40,000 years ago on earth?
What does the Bible have to say about this?
Does the Bible have anything to say about this?
Have we even looked to see if the Bible has anything to say about this?
Genesis 1:1 In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.
Isaiah 65:17 For behold, I create new heavens and a new earth; and the former shall not be remembered, nor come into mind.
Genesis 1:28 And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and ---replenish--- the earth
Genesis 9:1 And God blessed Noah and his sons, and said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth.
As one may see from Genesis 9:1 God was talking to Noah after the flood, but in Genesis 1:28 God is talking to Adam and Eve.
Thus in Genesis 1:28 the replenish may be in reference to mankind before Adam and Eve.
As Isaiah 65:17 may be refering to a time before present man came to inhabit the earth. Which may account for the scientific findings of humanoid existance before this present age of mankind.
This does not support the False religion of Evolution, but in fact Destroys the False Religion of evolution.
The Truth may be found by those who Seek for Truth.
What do you Seek?
