Two incredible discoveries, a world apart geographically, a breath apart in geological time—

On the Indonesian island of Flores, archaeologists working at the Liang Bua site opened a new chapter in the story of the human lineage with the appearance of a new relative, Homo floresiensis, whose meter-high stature caught the world by surprise. And in the ice fields of the southern Yukon, the more recent frozen remains, clothes, and tools of Kwäday Dän Ts’ínchi (“Long Ago Person Found”) provided an unprecedented glimpse of a person’s life literally frozen in time 550 years ago. What do these two very different discoveries have in common?
