Default "Giant Human Jawbone Baffles Scientists"

Quote:
Taiwanese fishermen have caught a large human jawbone that does not fit any of the known human species scientists have studied from the region so far. According to researchers who have had the chance to examine the remains, it is possible that it belonged to a hominin species that lived on mainland China between 200,000 and 10,000 years ago. More precise dating is difficult because of the scarcity of material. The bone is 20.7 mm wide on the side, compared to 14 mm for contemporary remains from Neanderthals.
