A 3ft female 'hobbit' discovered on a remote Indonesian island has been identified as a completely new member of the human race...that is mad, maybe a hoax, but i dunno, i think it may be real
|
Yea, I read about this on http://www.unexplained-mysteries.com , and also heard about it on the news. Interesting stuff.
|
if she really exist, then, there should be other human "hobbits" as well........
|
|
That thing is not real :plain:
|
I think he was being sarcastic

they even have photographic proof : http://www.neuvel.net/image%20files/Pictures/Ewok.jpg[/quote] rmfao |
Damn, someone beat me to it. but yes, it's true. BILBO BAGGINS LIVES!!! (or used to live, that is)
Anywho, I just read about this on the MSNBC site. It appears that the discovery of homo floresiensis may possibly rewrite everything we thought we knew about human evolution. For more info, check out MSNBC's article on the subject. |
well i wouldnt be surprised about this discovery since scientists proved that man evolved from simian-like creatures and mammals basically came from small rodent like species before they evolved to large animals such as whales, elephants, etc...
|
I wonder if this so called species of human lives now.
|
Yeah cuz this all just makes perfect sense. :sarcasm:

interestin!! just like when thy caught a mermaid in the ocean...had a pic.. she was trapped in a net..smilin at the camera...umm how did she knw wut a camera was n wut to do infront of it??.. lol i dont think if youwere caught in a net.. u wud be smilin...umm dont believe it at all!! ppl dont have any solid evidence!

Don't believe WHAT due to not having solid evidence: the mermaid or the "hobbit?" If you're referring to the "hobbit" fossils, I'm pretty sure that actual fossilized bones are pretty solid evidence. |
ppfft, thats nothing.
in africa, there was and STILL IS a group of humans called "pikmies" who are just three foot tall. (all of them, even the old people) the run realy, really fast and needed to get small to addapt to their enviornment for some reason. point of stry, they're really small, and still live. (notice resenblance between word pikmies and pikmen, see, nintendo knows whats up) |
i believe in this. Anyway we havent discover many things, so we cant say for sure that these things r non-existent

(notice resenblance between word pikmies and pikmen, see, nintendo knows whats up)[/quote] Actually, they're called "pygmies," not "pikmies." And it's not a single isolated tribe, they're rather spread out across not only the continent of africa, but the world (ie: midgets (or whatever the socially proper terminology is)). Colonies of pygmies are not terribly common elsewhere however (although there was once a community of midgets in New Jersey, but that's eluding the point.) The point is, the people you attempted to correctly refer to are still homo sapiens sapiens, human beings, just with different physical characteristics (just like africans are typically taller and stronger than caucasians, asians typically smaller, etc). The fossils found of the "hobbit" homo floresiensis are not of a human at all, but of a lesser evolved version of humans, or maybe not even related to humans at all. The MSNBC article suggests that the species may not even be able to be classified as homo-, but as something else....possibly an offshoot of our earliest recorded ancestors. So, the discovery of a non-human race of "dwarves" is indeed quite a major discovery, and not "nothing" as compared to the physical characteristics of a type of existing human being. And please, enough with the pink text....you're not Dan Hibiki |
the correct termonology would be "little people" (but you know midgets is just a whole lot funnier)
a book i read on the subject said thatthey arnt "less evolved", but their area and climate called for them to be not terrebly tall, so 3 or 4 fee would be adiquit. ad pigmies and midgits are sorta diffeent, because pigmies are small and black, skinny and run fast, whereas "little people" (you have to throw that in once and a while) are usually chubby, and walk slowly. pigmies look more like children with rinkly skin and facial hair, whereas little people ae really really short chubby adults. <span sstyle='color:"green"'>do you prefer me to write in green?</span> Edited By Virtual Fighter on 1099114756 |
I never said they were "less evolved," just that pygmies are not quite as fascinating as these new floresiensis, due to them being separate species.
It'd be like me finding a dinosaur bone in my backyard and you saying "pfft that's nothing, I've got an iguana living in a terrarium in my basement." And writing in green will force me to go across the country to wherever you are in LA, track you down, go to your house.... .....then email the address to Wild Dragon and have the cwazy dutch bastage torment you for all eternity. Muahahaha |
i just wanted to feel smart and bring up the fact i know what a pigmie is :(
dun hate me :( |
[quote:post_uid0="Virtual Fighter"]i just wanted to feel smart and bring up the fact i know what a pigmie is :(
dun hate me :([/quote] Actually, the singular form of the word appears as "pygmy." The "-ie" ending only appears in the plural form, as "pygmies." Don't they teach you kids anything in schools these days? Young whippersnappers... |

Forgive me if this is besides the point... but is that your whole reason for debating?? |
