In 2004, Henry Gee, editor of the journal Nature, mentioned the Yeti as an example of folk belief deserving further study, writing, "The discovery that Homo floresiensis survived until so very recently, in geological terms, makes it more likely that stories of other mythical, human-like creatures such as Yetis are founded on grains of truth."

[11] However, this DNA was later found to be that of Peter Byrne himself, not that of the finger. This is probably due to contamination when he took it from the monastery [12]. Tilman, H. W. (1938).
