“I’d Be Very Surprised if the Hobbits Didn’t Fall Down There.”

Big Homo floresiensis dig developments via John Hawks.  They’ve found a big new chamber in the hobbit cave on Flores Island.

Dr Gagan said he and his Indonesian colleagues surveyed just the top 5cm of a 5m-deep layer of mud in the 430sqm cavern. “Imagine what’s below,” he said. “It might have been a split-level home for hobbits.”

Hawks also has more on the bickering over the brains of these Indonesian microcephalics.

Speaking of brains, be sure to check out what the superlative Hawks blog has to say about yours and how much of it you’re using.
