Tolkien Was Right

Hobbits did exist:

A 3ft tall 'hobbit' discovered on a remote Indonesian island has raised the extraordinary possibility that our human species might not be alone on Earth.

The female creature has been identified as a completely new member of the human race.

But, although she lived 18,000 years ago, scientists believe her relatives survived for thousands more years on the island of Flores.

Now they just need to find some Elf skeletons. Of course, we all know that won't happen since they all sailed off to the West at the end of last age.
