An early human species nicknamed the ‘hobbit” and thought to have gone extinctthousands of years ago, may still be alive today, an expert has controversially claimed.
Homo floresiensis, dubbed the ‘hobbit’ because it stood at around 3ft 6ins, is thought to have lived on the island of Flores, which is now part of Indonesia, between 60,000 and 700,000 years ago.
It was a small-brained, large-footed toolmaker and it is not known where the species evolved from.
