Comment on "The brain of LB1, Homo floresiensis"

Falk et al. (Reports, 8 April 2005, p. 242) presented new data on the brain of the type specimen of Homo floresiensis, LB1. We argue that the size, proportions, and shape of the LB1 endocast fall within the range of variation observed for microcephalics. This specimen might therefore represent a pat...

description Falk et al. (Reports, 8 April 2005, p. 242) presented new data on the brain of the type specimen of Homo floresiensis, LB1. We argue that the size, proportions, and shape of the LB1 endocast fall within the range of variation observed for microcephalics. This specimen might therefore represent a pathological human being rather than a new hominid species.
