Denisovians weren't pygmies, they were actually like Neanderthals whom stone age white people fucked.

neanderthals split off from H. erectus about 600k years ago, H. Sapiens (our ancestors) about 200k years ago, I think the denisovans were earlier

Yeah Amerindians have a little bit too. We're finding lots of evidence for small amounts of archaic admixture from various divergent lineages/subspecies of homo sapiens. Neanderthal is well known, we found out about Denisovans recently, but we don't know much about them -- it's literally just some fragments of bone that we sequenced, not whole skeletons like we have for 'thals.

Even cooler, it's suspected from genomes of sub-Saharan Africans that they got some introgression from at least one as-yet unknown archaic group. We don't have any fossils at all for those (because fossils don't preserve very well in those regions), it's inferred purely from looking at the DNA.

The last ice age would have been a crazy time to be alive. The whole planet was up for grabs -- who would be the last hominin standing?

And the Africans were fucking much more apelike creatures than denisovans (who actually left Africa)
