Homo Floresiensis is a hominid discovered in the island of Flores Indonesia.
No complete skeleton was found, only a skull and other parts from nine individuals were found.
It was believed to be 12,000 years old. He was discovered in The Cave Liang Bua.
Also, some tools were found and dated 190 K years ago. He was established to be about 200K years old, but the tools could have been from other hominids.
He is related to Homo Habilis and this created a mystery because Homo Habilis is extinct from 1,6 million years ago.
His #fossils were taken by Professor Teuku Jacob from Indonesia for three months after discovered and when he returned them, they were altered. He claimed they were damaged during transportation.
Especially his fossil pelvis was damaged, so the bipedal station is questionable now. He was very small 1 meter or three feet tall.
He was believed he was a child, or he had a bone disease, nanism , Laron syndrome, Down syndrome, microcephalia or endemic cretinism but now it is considered to be an adult. The specimens are not fossilized and have the consistency of wet blotting paper.
He was the smallest hominid ever found and he was thought to be a pygmy. He is still controversial. Don' t click on this : [ Ссылка ]
