Eugene Dubois (Dutch) found what we now call a homo erectus in East Java in the 18 90's.Several unnamed Chinese archeologists found remains that were described by Davidson Black (Canada) and Franz Weidenreich (Germany)
The earliest hominid fossil was found in 1974. it's species lived for about seven million years ago and it was called Lucy
Java man is the name given to some of the first Homo erectus fossils to be discovered.They were recovered in 1891 by Eugène Dubois who initially gave Java man the species name Pithecanthropus erectus. His identification of the species as a human ancestor was widely dismissed at the time until further Homo erectus fosssils were found.
Homo erectus is believed to have spread from Africa to parts of Europe and Asia, with fossil remains found in regions such as Java, China, and Georgia. Their spread is seen as an early example of human migration out of Africa.
Homo erectus javanensis (L. homin=man or human being, erectus=to set upright, and javenensis=the name of the island where the [single type specimen] of Homo erectus was found) Name combination…derived from poorly constructed name Homo javanensis primi genius; the correct combination should have been Homo erectus erectus.

trinti java
I like to think it's because of the connection to "Java man" (Pithecanthropus erectus): it's primitive and an evolutionary dead end. However, the official story is that the programmers drank a lot of coffee while creating it.
Africa then lived from Africa to china even to Java
"Homo erectus" means "upright man" in Latin, a name that reflects the species' distinctive upright posture and bipedal locomotion. The name was first proposed by paleoanthropologist Eugène Dubois in 1892 based on fossil remains he discovered in Java.
technology and brain size
they had many nicknames including upright man, peking man, and java man.
java was discovered by James gosling and Co. in 1991 at sun micro systems..they renamed oak to java..initially java used in programming for set top boxes (for movie on demand..)
The Java man discovered Indonesia
not a clue.
