We are the homo species that were found about 95,000 to 12,000 years ago on the island of Flores, Indonesia. We are 3 to 6 inches tall being bipedal, having small brains, shrugged-forward shoulders, no chins, diminished forehead and large feet because of short legs. We are also nicknamed as the “Hobbit” after the tiny creatures in the book Lord of Rings. We have been the most spectacular discovery so far being the most extreme human ever discovered. We don’t look like modern humans but some of our behaviors are surprisingly similar to the humans. The first fossil of us was to be found by an Australian research team. They found a complete female skeleton of a tiny human at Liang Bua cave on the island of Flores, Indonesia.
