wn et al. and Morwood et al. reported in 2004 that they had found skeletal remains of a previously unknown type of hominin, now dubbed Homo floresiensis, on the nesian island of Flores. These hominins were small (approximately 1 m tall) with small braincases (approximately 380 cm3) as compared with other hominins. The ains of H. floresiensis were found alongside handmade stone tools and the remains of dwarf elephants that also inhabited the island, suggesting that H. floresiensis was both to make tools and to coordinate the hunting of animals much larger than itself. H. floresiensis is estimated to have lived at the site where the remains were found 700,000 years ago to 60,000 years ago. ch would be the most feasible method of figuring out to which other hominin species H. floresiensis was most closely related? Compare the average body size of H. floresiensis to that of each of the other hominin species. Compare the type of prey hunted by H. floresiensis to that hunted by each of the other hominin species. Compare the skeletal morphology of H. floresiensis to that of each of the other hominin species. Compare the estimated life span of H. floresiensis to that of each of the other hominin species.

Question
Brown et al. and Morwood et al. reported in 2004 that they had found skeletal remains of a previously unknown type of hominin, now dubbed Homo floresiensis, on the
Indonesian island of Flores. These hominins were small (approximately 1 m tall) with small braincases (approximately 380 cm3) as compared with other hominins. The
remains of H. floresiensis were found alongside handmade stone tools and the remains of dwarf elephants that also inhabited the island, suggesting that H. floresiensis was
able both to make tools and to coordinate the hunting of animals much larger than itself. H. floresiensis is estimated to have lived at the site where the remains were found
from 700,000 years ago to 60,000 years ago.
Which would be the most feasible method of figuring out to which other hominin species H. floresiensis was most closely related?
Compare the average body size of H. floresiensis to that of each of the other hominin species.
Compare the type of prey hunted by H. floresiensis to that hunted by each of the other hominin species.
Compare the skeletal morphology of H. floresiensis to that of each of the other hominin species.
Compare the estimated life span H. floresiensis
that of each of the other hominin species.
