In September of 2003, a team of archaeologists digging in a cave on Indonesia's Flores Island made a startling discovery: the skeleton of a grown woman that stood only three feet tall. Small hominids with this type of skull structure and brain size were supposed to have become extinct three million years ago-but radiocarbon dating showed their find to be only 18,000 years old. The scientists, it seemed, had unearthed an entirely new species of early human. Full-color photographs. Glossary. Source notes. Bibliography. Index.
