Homo Florensis -Absolutely amazing, Earth shattering news

Advertisements [?]

This just astounds me. We appear to have shared the Earth, up until a few hundreds years ago, with a pygmy species of Homo Erectus that was thought to have been extinct millions of years ago.

Conservative paleontolgist's heads are exploding right and left.

3 feet tall. No chin. Brain the size of a chimp's brain. Master of fire, tools and hunting. Wow, wow wow.
