And just watched a video on Denisovans and read this:

 

"Denisovans apparently interbred with modern humans, with the highest percentages (roughly 5%) occurring in Melanesians, Aboriginal Australians, and Filipino Negritos. "

 

So we have Neanderthal and Denisovans genes still active, what other relic hominids are leaked into the modern genome?

I read some time back that there are several mystery markers.
