When Hobbits Were Real

We already know about small-bodied, small-brained hominins in our human-fossil record. That’s why it was so shocking in 2004 when anthropologists discovered a tiny unknown hominin on the Indonesian island of Flores. Although only a meter tall and appearing to  be not very old, it had features of an older hominin. The specimen–Homo Floresiensis–became commonly called “The Hobbit,” because of its short stature and oddly proportioned feet. Tune in to learn more about The Hobbit from PBS Eons.

But we certainly aren’t eating any children to forestall global warming, nor do we believe we have to consider doing so. More from Carpe Donktum.

Kids Used for Climate Hysteria

Leftists are telling children that climate change is going to kill them and everyone they know—and then place those terrified kids in front of cameras to beg for their lives. Want some “propaganda”? Here you go. More from PragerU.

Meme the Left says what pisses him off about Greta Thunberg and her like? They are railing against Europe and the United States, yet the problem rests with China, India, Indonesia and the nations of Asia. They generate more than half the world’s carbon dioxide, and even greater quantities of other pollutants. But will Greta go there to rail? Of course not. This is a show, for the Liberal media and Western Communists.

Myths That Probably Existed

Hobbits, one of the more visual subjects in the popular J.R.R. Tolkien The Lord of the Rings trilogy, may not really be a figment of his vivid imagination after all. Excavations of a limestone cave on the Indonesian island of Flores uncovered a 3-foot-tall skeleton and nine other similar bodies, resembling hobbits the way we picture them today. Signs of early civilization were found with the bodies and scientists believe they were a different species of Neanderthals. Check out nine other mythical things that probably existed in this edition of Top 10 Archive.

How Heavy Metal Went Global

“The biggest surprise was the girls in Egypt wearing veils doing the headbanging,” Jörg Brüggemann says of his worldwide quest to document metal culture. The photographer went to concerts and festivals in Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Malaysia, Indonesia, Egypt, the U.S., Brazil, and Argentina over three years to capture the lifestyle and commonalities among fans. The result was a book, Metalheads, and a short documentary from the German art book publisher Gestalten. How does metal manage to transcend national boundaries? As Brüggemann points out, “a mosh pit is a mosh pit!”
