A new study has shed light on the timeline of interbreeding between Neanderthals and ancient humans, revealing that the interactions occurred earlier and more frequently than previously thought. The research, based on genetic analysis of fossil remains, suggests that the two species interbred in multiple regions and at different times, leaving a lasting impact on the human genome.

Ancient Interbreeding: Scientists Uncover Timeline of Human-Neanderthal Mating
A recent study has pinpointed the time period when humans interbred with Neanderthals, shedding light on the history of our species. The research suggests that humans and Neanderthals had children around 50,000 to 60,000 years ago, leaving a lasting genetic legacy.
New Study Reveals Timeline of Human-Neanderthal Interbreeding
A recent study has shed light on the timeline of interbreeding between early humans and Neanderthals, suggesting that the two species had children together around 50,000 to 60,000 years ago. The research, published in the journal Science, analyzed DNA samples from modern humans and Neanderthals to reconstruct the history of their interactions.
