A Neanderthal woman from Chagyrskaya Cave

Until now, the genomes of only two Neanderthals have been sequenced in high quality: one from Vindjia Cave in modern-day Croatia and one from Denisova Cave in Siberia's Altai Mountains. A research team has now sequenced the genome of a third Neanderthal whose remains were found - 106 kilometers away from the latter site - in Chagyrskaya Cave.
