Introduction There is a long history of suggestions of hybridization in human evolution (e.g., Coon 1939; Dobzhansky 1944). Interbreeding has even been suggested to have played a central role in the origin and evolution of our species (Ackermann, Mackay & Arnold 2016; Weckler 1954). Most suggestions of hybridization have been between Neanderthals (Homo neanderthalensis), as the first fossil human species recognized as distinct from our own (King 1864), and Homo sapiens.

On March 12, researchers announced the discovery of a new fossil from the excavation site of Sime del Elefante, near Burgos in Spain. Known as ATE7-1, the new fossil consists of a partial face belonging to an ancient hominin, a biological classification that includes living humans and our closest extinct relatives, such as Neanderthals and Homo erectus.
