Homo floresiensis

Florida State University anthropologists confirmed "The Hobbit" fossil found in my hometown Liang Bua, Manggarai is a new species of human being called Homo floresiensis. It is thought to have been contemporaneous with modern humans (Homo sapiens) on the Indonesian island of Flores. I wonder whether we're from such different species. It's not a big deal!

It is indeed a big deal! It could rewritten whole history books that state the theory of Homo Sapiens came from Africa ("The Out of Africa" theory) to "Out of Indonesia" Theory(or prhaps "Out of Flores"). It's trully a paradigm shift...
