From today's maverick science corner of the news: The finding of the diminutive Homo floresiensis bones on the Indonesian island of Flores didn't end the mysteries of humanity's occupation of the island. A discovery of a primitive human settlement on the island was made in conjunction with the discovery of the Hobbit remains. Excavations at the site where primitive tools were found have established a date for the site 120,000 years older than any previous human occupation of the island and has cast doubt on the previous belief that the arrival of humans led to the extinction of several native animal species. The find has also led scientists to speculate that there may be even more ancient indications of human habitation to be found on Flores. There's also news today concerning what some believe is evidence of ancient Hebrews visiting New Mexico, as explained in Explained? New Mexico's Hebrew Ten Commandments. With photo.
