Scientists find 9 'hobbits'

[Zander]

The existence of Homo floresiensis - so-called 'hobbits' - has been pretty much confirmed with the discovery of the remains of more of the creatures. Scientists believe they have various remains of nine individuals.

This should put to rest the notion that H. floresiensis was in fact a diseased modern human (Homo sapiens) as some scientists had claimed.
