The scientific name for hobbit is Homo floresiensis.
Homo sapiens probably evolved from Homo erectus, while Homo neanderthalensis and Homo floresiensis evolved separately from different branches of the Homo lineage. Homo neanderthalensis and Homo floresiensis did not directly evolve into Homo sapiens.
The scientific name Homo floresiensis means "Man of Flores." "Homo" refers to the genus of the hominins (humans and their close relatives), and "floresiensis" signifies the Indonesian island of Flores where this species was discovered.
It is currently unclear whether Homo floresiensis had a complex language like modern humans. However, studies suggest that they may have had some form of communication skills using a combination of gestures, vocalizations, and possibly a basic language system.
Homo floresiensis likely used natural materials such as leaves, branches, and possibly caves for shelter. They may have also constructed simple structures from materials available in their environment.
Homo floresiensis is an extinct species of hominin that lived approximately 100,000 to 60,000 years ago on the Indonesian island of Flores. The exact period of their existence is still debated among scientists.
Homo floresiensis, also known as "the hobbit," is believed to have consumed a diet that included a wide variety of food such as small game, seafood, plants, and possibly even the dwarf elephants found on the island of Flores. Analysis of their teeth and tools provides clues about their omnivorous diet.
There is no direct evidence that Homo floresiensis used fire. However, given their brain size and tool-making capabilities, it is possible that they may have been able to control and use fire.
Homo floresiensis is believed to have used simple stone tools such as flakes and choppers for activities like cutting, scraping, and hunting. Evidence suggests they may have also used fire for cooking and light.

The exact cause of the extinction of Homo floresiensis is not confirmed, but possible factors include natural disasters, competition with other hominin species, and environmental changes on the island of Flores where they lived. It is believed that a combination of these factors may have contributed to their demise.
Homo floresiensis, also known as the "Hobbit", is considered a distinct species from modern humans. They were a small-statured hominin species that lived on the Indonesian island of Flores around 50,000 to 100,000 years ago. Their unique characteristics set them apart as a separate species within the Homo genus.
