Was 19th Century Apewoman A Yeti? 6ft 6in Russian Serf Who Could Outrun A Horse Was ‘Not Human’, According To DNA Tests

Hundreds of explorers, theorists and fantasists have spent their lives searching for the infamous ‘big-foot’.

But a leading geneticist believes he has found evidence to prove that it - or rather she - could have been more than a myth.

Professor Bryan Sykes of the University of Oxford claims a towering woman named Zana who lived in 19th Century Russia - and appeared to be ‘half human, half ape’ - could have been the fabled yeti.

Witnesses described the six-foot, six-inches tall woman discovered in the Caucasus mountains between Georgia and Russia as having ‘all the characteristics of a wild animal’ - and covered in thick auburn hair.
