The First Denisovan Forearm Bone Ever Discovered Fills a Key Knowledge Gap in Our Understanding of This Archaic Hominin

September 12, 2026

 

The first Denisovan radius ever discovered is offering scientists a rare new glimpse into one of humanity’s most mysterious ancient relatives, whose scarce fossil remains have left much of their story unknown.

In a recent paper published in Nature, the team described these unique remains, discovered in the Bianfu Cave in Southwest China, an important Paleolithic site.

 

While Denisovans have been discovered throughout Asia, this part of China has been a major gap in the record.

Therefore, this site provides important information about what a complete Denisovan body would have been like, as well as intricate details about regional skull variations among these archaic hominins.

 

A New Technique

The researchers behind the new study developed a novel technique to make the most of the more than 60,000 bone fragments recovered from Bianfu Cave.

While Zooarchaeology by Mass Spectrometry (ZooMS) has become an important tool in working with hominin fossils, using it on a find of this scale would be inefficient and expensive.

Therefore, the team developed a morphological pre-screening and ZooMS identification technique, which greatly increased their efficiency in recovering hominin fragments from the site and could be applied to other Paleolithic sites in the future.

A total of 22 likely hominin bone fragments were identified in the pre-screening process, from which two parietal bone fragments and one proximal radial fragment were confirmed by ZooMS as belonging to hominins.

 

Denisovan Remains Uncovered

Two of these hominin remains were excavated from the same layer, dated between 148,000 and 143,000 years old, which also held four hominin teeth.

The research team further examined two of those teeth, and a detailed analysis indicated they belonged to males. The third specimen was even older, from a layer dated between 167,000 and 150,00 years old.

 

By screening the fragments for amino acids, the team identified a variant of COL1A2 R996K unique to Denisovans as present, confirming the species identity of the remains.

Other intriguing amino acids in the fragments included one shared by Denisovans, Neanderthals, and modern humans, as well as one that marks them as distinct from Homo erectus, which also occupied East Asia.

As the team closely examined the morphology of skulls excavated from Bianfu Cave, they identified a cranial thickness pattern remarkably similar to H. heidelbergensis and East Asian late Middle Pleistocene archaic Homo.

 

A New Understanding of Denisovans

After analyzing the morphology of the first Denisovan radius ever discovered, the researchers suggest it was likely oriented similarly to a Neanderthal’s, but with a shape and cross-sectional geometry closer to that found in modern humans.

The importance of the find lies not only in being the first example of its kind, but also in indicating biochemical demands and adaptations distinct from both Neanderthals and modern humans.

 

Besides Denisova Cave in Siberia, from which Denisovans draw their name, the team believes Bianfu Cave may hold the largest fossil record for the species.

This could provide researchers with crucial new data, over a decade into the quest to understand the Denisovan species of Asia.

Based on the age of the layers in which the remains were found, the team says the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau region, where the cave resides, may have been an ideal homing habitat at the time.

The Earth would have been in a glacial period, during which the area’s relatively warm climate would have aided hominin survival.

UFOs in Spain: Defense may have run out of time to deliver its files

Last updated 12 SEP, 2026 - 22:19

 

The Transparency Council ordered the Ministry of Defense to report on the files, reports, and investigations it holds regarding Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena, the former UFOs, and granted it ten business days from the notification of the resolution.

 

The ruling is dated August 19, so the deadline may have already expired; however, the exact date on which Defense formally received the resolution does not appear in the consulted public documentation and does not allow for speaking yet of non-compliance.

El Español reported this Saturday the existence and content of the file.

 

The Transparency and Good Governance Council estimated a claim against Defense and ordered it to provide information on the so-called Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena, FANI, the designation that has replaced the traditional term UFO in official documentation.

The resolution R CTBG 0867/2026 officially appears among the resolutions estimated by the Council during August and is addressed to the Ministry of Defense.

The agency itself summarizes the matter with three key words: defense, FANI, and information, and notes that the origin of the claim was the silence of the Administration.

The resolution establishes that Defense must provide the information within a maximum period of ten business days. More than three weeks have passed since then.

 

If Defense received the notification that same day or on immediately subsequent dates, the ten business days would have already ended at the beginning of September.

For example, if the notification had occurred on August 19, the deadline would have concluded approximately on September 2, excluding Saturdays and Sundays.

But legally the clock does not necessarily start running on the day a resolution is signed.

It begins when it is notified to the obligated agency.

 

And the exact date on which the Ministry formally received R CTBG 0867/2026 does not appear in the public information that Demócrata has been able to consult.

This detail prevents affirming, as of today, that Defense has failed to comply.

It does allow for pointing out that, unless a considerably later notification than the signing occurred, the deadline should already be expired.

It is also not publicly recorded that Defense has delivered the documentation.

 

What does Transparency want to know exactly about UFOs

The request that originated the file goes far beyond consulting old sightings.

The citizen requested to know what documentation, technical reports, administrative files, and investigations the State currently holds on the so-called Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena.

 

The request specifically targets the Ministry of Defense and the Air and Space Force.

It also aims to know if there are other bodies of the General Administration of the State that safeguard similar documentation.

And it raises a third issue that is especially sensitive: what is the classification status of those documents.

That is to say, what material remains secret or reserved.

 

The most interesting question: if Spain retains new files

Spain has already made a considerable part of its historical archives public.

The so-called UFO File began to be declassified in 1991 and can currently be consulted through the Virtual Defense Library.

The collection includes 80 files and around 1,900 pages of documentation related to sightings recorded in Spanish airspace.

 

The public archives cover phenomena from 1962 to 1995. The new claim precisely points to the gap that remains afterwards. More than thirty years have passed.

The question is whether Defense has continued to record, investigate, or document aerial phenomena that it could not initially identify.

The resolution does not state that those files exist. It compels the Ministry to say whether they exist.

From San Javier to Morón: what Spain has made public

The historical files begin with a case that occurred in San Javier, Murcia, in 1962.

The public series ends in 1995 with documentation related to Morón, Sevilla.

Between both extremes, there are military reports, testimonies from pilots and citizens, sketches, investigations, and internal communications.

The declassification did not mean that Defense considered those phenomena to be extraterrestrial.

 

A UFO was, literally, a flying object that could not be identified initially.

Many files ended up having conventional explanations.

Others simply retained the description of the observed phenomenon with the information available at that time.

 

Transparency also wants to know what remains classified

The request contains another layer. It is not enough to identify the files.

The citizen requests to know the administrative status of each document and, in those cases subject to classification, the degree of protection applied.

 

It also requests to know when they were classified and which body made the decision.

And it adds another particularly current question: whether Defense plans to review that material to study a future declassification.

That is why the eventual response from the Ministry may be more interesting than a simple list of sightings.

It can offer a first photograph of which part of the Spanish file on FANI remains closed to the public.

 

Defense did not initially respond to the citizen

The file was born precisely because the Ministry did not respond to the access request.

The request was submitted in March.

In the absence of a response, the citizen went to the Transparency Council.

The Council then opened the procedure and ended up estimating his claim.

 

In its official listing, the CTBG continues to identify resolution 0867/2026 with the word "silence," a reference to the administrative behavior that gave rise to the procedure.

That should not be confused with the current state of compliance.

That the resolution appears labeled as "silence" means that Defense did not respond in the initial phase.

Defense can invoke limits related to national security, defense, or the protection of classified information.

That does not mean it can remain silent.

 

If it considers that certain documents should not be made public, it will have to justify it according to transparency and official secrets legislation.

There may also be a middle ground. A document may contain parts whose disclosure is sensitive and others that can indeed be delivered.

The general principle regarding transparency allows for partial access when it is not necessary to protect the entirety of the content because they may affect the security of airspace.

 

The United States has reopened the debate

The issue coincides with a new international stage of interest in UAP, the term used in the United States.

The Pentagon and the U.S. Congress have developed specific mechanisms in recent years to collect reports from pilots and military personnel and review historical documentation.

Spain does not publicly have an equivalent structure with the same visibility.

The resolution of the Council may offer for the first time an updated picture of what is happening here.

=Multi-Subreddit AMA with host Thomas Jane, Dean Alioto, Dave Foley and Debra Kauble

September 13, 2026

 

The Anomalous Coalition presents a multi-subreddit livestream AMA on the experiencer phenomenon — the people who say non-human intelligence has entered their lives directly.

Special guest host THOMAS JANE leads the conversation with filmmaker DEAN ALIOTO, comedian and UFO researcher DAVE FOLEY, and experiencer DEBRA JORDAN KAUBLE.

 

Eight years. 67 interviews. Five countries. Dean Alioto's award-winning documentary moves past the question of whether contact is real and into the harder one: why.

Featuring Travis Walton, Whitley Strieber, Harvard geneticist Dr. George Church, and Debra Jordan Kauble.

 

YOUR HOST

THOMAS JANE Actor, director and producer with more than twenty-five years in film and television, and a triple Golden Globe nominee for "Hung."

Known for "The Punisher," "The Mist," "Deep Blue Sea," Stephen King's "1922," and as a director and star on "The Expanse."

He is not a newcomer to this subject. Jane is roughly fifteen years into his own UAP research — he has been turning up at MUFON symposia since 2012, spoke at Contact in the Desert, and has completed a non-fiction book, "A Human's Guide to Visiting Aliens," on consciousness, telepathy, and why visitors are so consistently described as humanoid. He traces it back to a childhood sighting of an orange fireball. 📖 His forthcoming book: "A Human's Guide to Visiting Aliens" — no release date announced yet.

 

THE GUESTS

DEAN ALIOTO — Director, "The Experiencers: Full Disclosure" Award-winning documentarian who has produced specials for A&E, Bravo and Discovery, and consulted on James Fox's "The Phenomenon."

He created "The McPherson Tape" (1989), widely credited as the first found-footage film — a decade before "The Blair Witch Project" — and the Paramount cult classic "Alien Abduction: Incident in Lake County."

His two-part series "The Alien Perspective" approached the phenomenon from the visitors' point of view, drawing in Michio Kaku, David Chalmers, Nick Bostrom and Seth Shostak. He spent eight years making this film.

DEBRA JORDAN KAUBLE — Experiencer On June 30, 1983, Debra Jordan Kauble walked into her family's garage outside Indianapolis and encountered something she has spent four decades trying to understand.

She describes lasting physical effects afterward, a ring-shaped mark that remained in the yard for nearly five years, and the sudden decline and death of her dog. Her account became the subject of Budd Hopkins' international bestseller "Intruders: The Incredible Visitations at Copley Woods," which CBS adapted as a 1992 miniseries starring Mare Winningham. She appeared in the book under a pseudonym to protect her young sons and revealed her identity in 1992. With her sister Kathy Mitchell she went on to co-write "Abducted! The Story of the Intruders Continues," telling it in their own words rather than an investigator's. She is a featured subject in the documentary.
