Full Story

Replies LillianH Posted at 2:18 pm on Feb. 15, 2007 Yeah, I saw something about that a while ago. Pretty interesting, and they definitely didn't have mental retardation- it appears as though they were in some ways, highly evolved. To make a lighter note though, I know for sure that I have the appetite of a Hobbit. I swear I eat more than they do, lol. techgeek Posted at 5:59 pm on Feb. 7, 2007 uhh...duh...i live in Indonesia. This 'hobbit' you are reffering to is an ancient human species living in the Florence Islands. They are called homofloriensis. Not hobbits...but....they are quite short heh... flatplat Posted at 3:32 pm on Jan. 30, 2007 Yeah, the past existence of 'Hobbits' has been confirmed for a while. What's bringing up more debate is how long ago they survived to. The skeletons are younger than all the  ones found of found of Neanderthals (so far), but some people are trying to tie them in to rumors of the 'orang pendek' ( lit short man in Indonesian), a race of men of small existence  which supposedly reside/resided on some of the bigger islands to the west. xBeautifulTragedyx Posted at 6:49 pm on Jan. 29, 2007 My father. ....Yes Yes. espresso8097 Posted at 6:49 pm on Jan. 29, 2007 Quote: from deadwood83 at 8:45 pm on Jan. 29, 2007 Quote: from espresso8097 at 6:42 pm on Jan. 29, 2007 Quote: from deadwood83 at 8:41 pm on Jan. 29, 2007 Not hobbits demmit!  Homo Sapiens Florensius  People in the science community have known about them for a long time.    They have been a theory, there has not been enough evidence to say they did exist. So you're saying that finding over 3 groupings with similar culture in spread out areas doesn't mean they exist?  That's just as crazy as calling them hobbits. The term "hobbit" is just the slang term.  Ill shut up and stop posting so many times.  I'm probably getting annoying.
