The current scientific understanding is that Homo sapiens not only mated with Homo neanderthalis, but also Homo erectus and Homo habilis. This article talks about some evidence that purports to show we also mated with another, yet to be identified, Homo species.
I assume genetic manipulation would be more evident? Was this ruled out?

No it shows that Africans mated with another yet to be identified species. It says in the article No Europeans were affected by this.

Do you have a reference on the others. anthropology junkie here. I hadn't seen those. The 'sister species to neanderthal in Africa I read about.
This occured post the great migration. Neanderthal dna was added after that, in the middle eastern/turkey region around the black sea where they shared apparently peacefully for a long time. That strain of dna is not found in Africans. This new one is not found in European/asian populations.
This also means that other species of humans existed in africa long after the dominant form had been reached.
