Australian archaeologists have found out that hobbits really existed. In one of the caves on the island of Flores in Indonesia, the remains of a new human species one metre tall have been found. Scientists called them "hobbits".
Most likely they were dark-skinned, hairless, with flat noses and fangs instead of teeth.
The sensational nature of the find is that these creatures lived 19 thousand years ago and died out in the tenth millennium BC. So they were contemporaries of homo sapiens.
