Homo floresiensis

Homo floresiensis, nicknamed Flores Man or the Hobbit, was a small archaic human that lived on the Indonesian island of Flores until modern humans arrived about 50,000 years ago. Its remains were found in 2003 in Liang Bua cave, where an adult stood only about 1.1 metres tall, and partial skeletons of 15 individuals had been recovered by 2015, including the complete skull LB1. Its ancestors probably reached the island more than a million years ago, and its small body is now generally explained as insular dwarfism. The skeletal material at Liang Bua is dated to 60,000 to 100,000 years ago, while older remains from Mata Menge are about 700,000 years old.
