Steve Connor writes in the Independent that these people, who have been nicknamed "Hobbits" by the scientific community, were about 3 feet tall and became extinct over 10,000 years ago. Despite having small brains (the skulls that have been found can fit into the palm of a hand), they created fairly sophisticated tools.
"A stunning survey of the latest evidence for intelligent life on Mars. Mac Tonnies brings a thoughtful, balanced and highly accessible approach to one of the most fascinating enigmas of our time."
--Herbie Brennan, author of Martian Genesis and The Atlantis Enigma
"Tonnies drops all predetermined opinions about Mars, and asks us to do the same."
--Greg Bishop, author of Project Beta
"I highly recommend the book for anyone interested in the search for extra-terrestrial artifacts, and the political intrigues that invariably accompany it."
--David Jinks, author of The Monkey and the Tetrahredron
"Mac Tonnies goes where NASA fears to tread and he goes first class."
--Peter Gersten, former Director of Citizens Against UFO Secrecy

Here's a thought, Mac. Might there not be some connection between these so-called "hobbits" and cryptoterrestrials? Could they be an offshoot? (One way traditional cultures may have experienced cryptos or CTs is as "the little people" -- at least in Ireland!)
I think there's a link, even if only peripheral. I posted some analyses of the "hobbits" and "Grays" in previous months. Interestingly enough, there's an oral tradition of the "hobbits" kidnapping children, which should sound familiar!

"Tiny tools" in more than one sense, too, to judge from the illustration!
