The '''Denisovans''' (''Denisova hominin'') were a prehistoric species of the genus ''[[Wikipedia:Homo (genus)|Homo]]'', closely related to [[human]]s and [[Neanderthal]]s. The Denisovans were genetically similar enough with these groups to interbreed with both species. They were tall and lean in stature, had deep brown skin, reddish hair and square heads. Male Denisovans had abundant facial hair. An unknown number of Denisovans were present on [[Installation 07]], along with several other species of human.<ref>'''Halo: Primordium''', ''page 169''</ref> | The '''Denisovans''' (''Denisova hominin'') were a prehistoric species of the genus ''[[Wikipedia:Homo (genus)|Homo]]'', closely related to [[human]]s and [[Neanderthal]]s.
