Homo Floresiensis (30 août 92926 av. J.-C. – 30 août 15000 av. J.-C.)

Description:

This early human species is the one that went extinct most recently; it coexisted with humans during the entire duration of its known time range. It is the smallest known species in our genus, Homo, with a brain size about one third of ours. This extremely small size earned the species the nickname "hobbit". These early humans may have evolved a much smaller size than their ancestors due to the scarcity of resources on the island.
