It's interesting that both the Denisovans and the Neanderthals were named after religious individuals. The Denisovan remains were found in the Denisova cave, Denis being a Russian Orthodox hermit who lived there. The word Neanderthal comes from the Neander valley, which was called after a German minister who enjoyed walking the area and writing hymns. |
