TL;DR Summary

Scientists have conducted genome sequencing on the skull of 'Zlatý Kůň', the earliest known woman who lived 45,000 years ago in Eurasia. Using statistical data and CT scans, researchers have reconstructed her face, revealing her dark features and a jaw structure more compatible with Neanderthals. The genomic analysis suggests that Zlatý Kůň lived 2,000 years after the first interactions between Homo sapiens and Neanderthals, making her a key figure in early human migration and interaction.
