Scientists using DNA to investigate the story of humankind have decoded genetic material from an unidentified human ancestor that lived in Siberia -- and conclude it might be a new member of the human family tree.


Fossil skulls of La Ferrassie Neanderthal, left, and Cro-Magnon, that are on a three-month loan from the Musee de l'Homme in France, are seen in the David H. Koch Hall of Human Origins exhibit at the Smithsonian's National Museum of Natural History in Washington. Scientists think DNA analysis of Siberian genetic material may have revealed yet another branch of the human tree.

I am sure that we all know at least one person whom we'd suspect
