Fossils of great apes tend to be uncommon, so much fanfare accompanies the announcement of new specimens. This is particularly true of any fossils that might represent direct ancestors of our own species; such discoveries will invariably provoke a rumpus. This shirt features four hominine genera: Homo (represented by a Denisovan), Pan, Paranthropus, and Australopithecus. Inspired by Fu et al. (2025) “Denisovan mitochondrial DNA from dental calculus of the> 146,000-year-old Harbin cranium.” https://www.cell.com/cell/fulltext/S0092-8674(25)00627-0?_returnURL=https%3A%2F%2Flinkinghub.elsevier.com%2Fretrieve%2Fpii%2FS0092867425006270%3Fshowall%3Dtrue
