You may have heard this over the last few years about the prehistoric “hobbit” people who lived in or around Indonesia. Now there's an article in National Geographic about how they may have had a “million year-year history”. Any thoughts on this? The theory goes that they lived as recently as 18,000 years ago at the same time as humans. If this is the case, why would the hobbit-people have ceased to exist so suddenly given their super-long history?

Great, another fable to add to Anthropology's growing mythology.
Hobbits are a race of characters created by JRR Tolkien for the Middle-Earth world of the Lord of the Rings Trilogy.I used Wikipedia, ugh, but this is not scholarly so I will take the heat. 8)
