The Flores Homo sapiens, known as the Hobbit, are thought to have been extinct, but Dr Gregory FOSS, a British anthropology professor and former Oxford scholar, believes there is evidence that they are still alive. In fact, in the past 20 years, it is widely said that hobbits have lived here for tens of thousands of years in the remote mountainous areas of eastern Indonesia. It is reported that Australian paleoanthropologists discovered a new human species "Homo floresiensis" in Liang BUA cave on Flores Island, a remote island in Indonesia, in 2003. Liang BUA cave on Flores Island where the bones of the "Hobbit" were unearthed. Part of the female skeleton of a humanoid creature less than 4 feet tall was excavated and quickly named the hobbit. Surprisingly, this ancient race is likely to coexist with modern Homo sapiens for a long time. According to the recovered "Hobbit" image of the unearthed remains. So far, 13 hobbit bones have been unearthed in Liang BUA cave, which is the only place where such bones have been found. Anthropologists have confirmed that the species may have evolved 190000 to 50000 years ago. The earliest reports on this "little ape man" can be traced back to the 1920s. This may sound as fanciful as the myth of Bigfoot or Loch Ness monster, but the possibility of hobbit survival has never been completely denied by scientists. Dr Gregory forth, 74, is now an honorary professor in the Department of anthropology at the University of Alberta, Canada. He first heard about the "existence" of the Hobbit in 1984, when he was on a field trip on the island. In his forthcoming book between the apes, Dr. forth lists "eyewitness reports" he has collected for more than 30 years, which are consistent with the characteristics of Flores Homo sapiens. Dr FOSS is not the only anthropologist who believes that hobbits are still alive. The first "Hobbit" remains. Dr. Bert Roberts, a member of the team who discovered the first hobbit skeleton, also said that the local people of Flores described a kind of "hairy man", "short, long hair, big belly... When walking, their gait is slightly clumsy, their arms and fingers are long, they mutter to each other and can repeat words in the way of parrots". In 2017, a small video showed a cyclist in northern Sumatra chasing a small naked man who ran into a bush. He is considered a member of the Mante tribe, an ancient "Hobbit" race that has been recorded on the island for centuries. In recent years, new species of large mammals have been discovered. Dr. FOSS said that in his view, the existence of modern hobbits is completely "possible". However, other scholars are highly skeptical of the claim that another species of "Homo sapiens" still exists today. Dr Darren Naish, a paleozoologist and former lecturer at the University of Southampton in the UK, said reliable biological samples were still needed to prove the authenticity of the animal. Dr FOSS said that at present, no field zoologists are looking for living specimens of Homo sapiens Flores, "but that doesn't mean they can't be found". (Xinhua News Agency)
