Tiny Tools





Steve Connor writes in the Independent that these people, who have been nicknamed "Hobbits" by the scientific community, were about 3 feet tall and became extinct over 10,000 years ago. Despite having small brains (the skulls that have been found can fit into the palm of a hand), they created fairly sophisticated tools.

I think there's a link, even if only peripheral. I posted some analyses of the "hobbits" and "Grays" in previous months. Interestingly enough, there's an oral tradition of the "hobbits" kidnapping children, which should sound familiar!
