Homo americanis

Homo americanis is one of six human species in A New Dawn. They began as an sub-species of homo nihonensis who migrated to North America, but after years of isolation from their brethren they evovled, and became their own distinct species.

Characteristics
Homo americanis are a long-legged and slender species, and like Sapiens they are great endurance runners. They are one of the taller species, males average around 178-183 cm, and the women are not much shorter, as they usually stand 176-180 cm tall. Due to their general slender build and lack of fat storage (compared to other humans), they generally have a more androgynous look. Other humans might have a harder time telling the men and women apart.

Like their distant nihonensis cousins they are brown-skinned, with dark hair. They also share many facial features, such as large ears and small noses, but their greater sense of hearing and extremely elongated skulls (alla the artificial elongated skulls of some humans from our timeline), sets them apart from any other human species.

Their vocal ability is similar to those of their brethren and denisovans. They are thus able to form words in the same capacity as Sapiens, but with deeper sounding voices.
