Summary When archaeologists unearthed the skeleton of a tiny woman on a far-off Indonesian island, they were convinced they had discovered a new member of our family tree. She was so different from all our known relatives, that she challenged nothing less than what it means to be human. But new evidence suggests the scientists could have made a spectacular mistake. Horizon follows teams of scientists across the world on a quest to solve the riddle of the Hobbit, and find out who she really was
