Homo juluensis is a proposed extinct species of archaic humans that inhabited East Asia during the Middle to Late Pleistocene, approximately 300,000 to 50,000 years ago. The species name, meaning "big head," derives from the distinct cranial features observed in fossil remains discovered at sites such as Xujiayao and Xuchang in northern and central China.These fossils, initially unearthed in the 1970s, display a unique mix of characteristics seen in Homo sapiens, Neanderthals, and Denisovans, along with distinct traits like large cranial capacity and thick skull bones.[1][2][3]
