yeah no shit. this has always been the case. neanderthal, denisovans, whatever weird archaic lineage they recently found in west africans, and whatever other ghost ape lineages are up in there.

Also the Zhoukoudian material (Peking Man) plus sites like Lantian, Yunxian, and Hexian-- these get called "erectus" but some paleoanthropologists have been arguing for decades represent semi-independent evolution that then partially merged back (definitely correct, erectus is such a ridiculous thing to call a "species" to begin with, the temporal depth alone should be enough to disqualify it, not that species are natural kinds to begin with but taxonomy should have at least reasonable physical constraints). They shouldn't really even be drawing taxonomic boundaries at all in erectus considering the coverage is like 100s of samples over 1.9 million year period in which contained likely 10s of billions of hominids.
