The latest studies find that Homo Floresiensis did not use fire and hunt the bigger animals in the island as previously thought. The discovery of these ancient humans astounded anthropologists because even within their smaller brain capacity, they practiced typical human survival strategies. But nope... What a letdown.
>>5170489When will they learn?
>>5170489Imagine
I mean, they still are somewhat practicing survival strategies by doing things like sucking marrow out of animals raw.
>>5170489They weren't Homo but Australopithecus. Even if they were Homo it was early homo habilis at max. Mind boggling such things existed until 50,000 years ago
>>5170554They were descendants of homo erectus. Erectus was present in Java and surrounding areas around the same time floresiensis started showing up on their island and australopithecus never existed outside of Africa.
It really does suck there's nobody left but abbos in australia to scientifically study
>>5170489And the furtive pygmies, so easily forgotten…
>>5170489so what, they were basically glorified monkes?Floresiensis aside, the concept that these creatures that were human like but not human at the same time used fire, clothes, tools, weapons, build shelters etc. creeps me out
>>5171443They weren't human like, they were human. It's what the homo genus translates to.
>>5171446maybe in a strictly biological sense but if you saw a homo haibilis running around you wouldn't call that a human
>>5171426Pygmies?
>>5171673now I'm curious, yeah what does he mean "good business?"why would you marry and fuck a smart monkey that learned to talk?
>>5171693>why would you marry and fuck a smart monkey that learned to talk?Its good business
>>5171616Not that anon, but I definitely would to be annoying to my peers though.>>5170489This may not mean a full let down. Perhaps the situation didn't allow them to use these techniques as much.
>>5171673The fuck did he mean by "good business"?
