Imagine dredging up sand for a new island and finding ancient human bones instead! Scientists just uncovered the first-ever hominin fossils from the now-submerged Sundaland, revealing that Homo erectus once roamed what’s now the Java Sea. These fossils, dating back over 100,000 years, show early humans weren’t stuck on Java—they explored a vast savannah full of elephants, Komodo dragons, and even river sharks. This wild discovery is totally rewriting what we thought about human migration in Southeast Asia! #History #Archaeology #HumanEvolution
