Overview

Homo floresiensis, commonly known as the “Hobbit,” is an extinct hominin species that lived on the Indonesian island of Flores approximately 100,000 to 60,000 years ago. The fossil remains of Homo floresiensis were first discovered in Liang Bua Cave in 2003, and the species is characterized by its small stature and unique combination of primitive and derived features.

Description

A scientifically accurate model of Homo floresiensis meticulously reproduces the known morphological features of this hominin. The model accurately depicts the small cranial capacity, distinctive facial morphology and other pertinent anatomical details. Homo floresiensis is notable for its small stature, with individuals standing about three feet tall, making them one of the most diminutive hominins known.

Crafted with precision and attention to detail, the Homo floresiensis fossil model serves as a valuable tool for researchers, educators, and enthusiasts in the field of paleoanthropology. It provides a tangible representation of the hominin’s physical traits, aiding in the study of Homo floresiensis adaptations, behaviors, and its place in the broader human evolutionary lineage.

Constructed from durable, museum-quality materials, the Homo floresiensis fossil model reflects the latest scientific research and understanding of this unique hominin species. Its inclusion in exhibits, educational displays, and collections contributes to a deeper comprehension of the evolutionary trajectory and ecological dynamics of early humans during the Pleistocene epoch.

The Homo floresiensis fossil model’s accurate representation of the individuals’ anatomy and skeletal structure enriches our understanding of Homo floresiensis biology and its adaptation strategies. Its meticulous design and scientific precision make it a compelling addition to the exploration of human evolution, providing a tangible link to our ancient past on the island of Flores.
