Re: Still extant ?
What a great story - even gave me goosebumps. Wouldn't a discovery like that be fantastic?!

The Andamanese Negrito
The Andamanese Negrito (and other small people in the general vicinity) and Homo floresiensis, could they be related?
Here's an excellent and fascinating read about the Negritos (scroll down to the portion entitled "The Book"): The Andamanese Negrito

Re: The Andamanese Negrito
I'm glad you enjoyed the read. My father is the one who mentioned the Negritos to me, though he was referring to the ones living on the Philippine Islands. He was stationed on the Philippines years ago and remembered them clearly.
I have been somewhat following this floresiensis discovery and wondered why none of these small-statured people were mentioned at all. Especially since so many of them are found in that same area. Perhaps, it's simply too early for speculations of that sort. I'm sure it's been (and being) considered by researchers.
