‘Dragon Man’ Skull Mystery Cracked!

Remember that wild ‘dragon man’ skull found in China in the 1930s? Turns out, it’s not a new human species after all—it’s a Denisovan! Scientists finally figured it out by analyzing ancient dental plaque (yep, fossilized tartar) after DNA tests on the skull and tooth failed. The skull was hidden for decades and only recently donated to science. Denisovans lived alongside us and Neanderthals, so this is a major piece of our human puzzle! #DragonMan #AncientMystery #Denisovan #Science
