Hobbits were REAL? Really? Actually ... yes.
DR KAREN BAAB is a biological anthropologist and an Associate Professor in the Department of Anatomy at Midwestern University, Arizona and her main interests are the extinct relatives of humans and what the shape of hominin brains can tell us. Dr Baab has also led a series of studies of the "Hobbits" of Flores Island, Indonesia.
MARK from Evolution Soup talks with Dr Baab about these fascinating hominins, their strange origins, and why they are so small compared to other hominins of the time.
