The world map for Denosovian DNA is wrong. The Australian/Papua population is around 6% not the 0.8% which the figure shows.

It is a shame that Africa is so ignored in these studies. We know that there were many interbreeding events that occurred in Africa (the African pygmies are one example), but we know almost nothing more.
