Ncient human fossils in Indonesia
The discovery of fossils of early humans in Indonesia, making Indonesia a notable and important for historical research and the development of human life in the past. The first researcher who came to Indonesia a Dutch physician named Eugene Dubois. He came to Indonesia as interested in a skull that was sent by van Rietschoten BD (1890), which is found in the area Wajak. On the island of Java Dubois found the fossils of early humans tengkorang) in 1889) near the village of Trinil in East Java, which give Pitecantropus named Erectus, in diuga aged less than 1 million years. The discovery of the first in the Trinil (Ngawi district) was followed by other discoveries in the next area.
Dubois invention is particularly earth-shattering Paleoanthropology Science and Biology. The findings were later published abroad, the study of early humans resulted in many more performed by the experts to find fossils of early humans in Indonesia.
Of some ancient human fossils in Indonesia by the experts can best knowledge some hominid species, among others:
A.Homo
A. Homo mojokertensis
The Homo mojokertensis (ape-man from Mojokerto) fossils were found in Perning (Mojokerto) in East Java in 1936 - is this gay 1941.Fosil Von Koenigswald found ..
2. Homo Robustus
Robustus sense of itself is a large ape-man and a strong body was found in 1936 in Sangiran Solo.Fosil River valley gay men who are found to Von Koenigswald ..
3. Homo Sapiens
This type of gay men who already have a shape similar to the human body now and also has the nature of man now but still has a very simple life, and of course life wandering (nomadic). The type of Homo sapiens found in Indonesia there are two, namely:
- Homo Soloensis
- Homo sapiens wajakensis
4. Homo soloensis:
Soloensis Homo fossils found in Ngandong, Blora, at Sangiran and Tiger Link, Sragen, by Ter Haar, Oppenoorth, and Von Koenigswald in the year 1931-1933 from the Upper Pleistocene layers. Soloensis Homo, which lived about 900,000 to 300,000 years ago. Brain volume reached 1300 cc. According to Von Koenigswald creatures higher level compared with Pithecanthropus Erectus. Is estimated that this creature is an evolution and Pithecanthropus mojokertensis.By some experts, Homo neanderthalensis, Homo classified Soloensis which is a hominid species Homo sapiens from Asia, Europe, and Africa from the Upper Pleistocene layers.
5. Homo Wajakensis
Wajakensis Homo fossil was discovered by Van Riestchoten in 1889 in the village Wajak, Tulungagung. This fossil was then studied by Eugene Dubois. This fossil is the first hominid fossils were reported from Indonesia. Wajakensis Homo fossils have about 130-210 cm in height, weighing 30-150 kg badanantara. 1300 cc brain volume reaches this kind of early humans lived between 40 000 -25 000 years ago, the Upper Pleistocene layers. When compared to the type sebelu mnya, Homo Wajakensis show progress.
The food was cooked, although still very simple. Homo skull Wajakensis have much in common with the skulls of indigenous Australia, Aboriginal. Therefore, Eugene Dubois suspect that Homo Australoide WajakensIs included in the race,
bernenek ancestor of Homo Soloensis and reduce Aboriginal peoples.Wajakensis Homo fossils also have similarities with the human fossil Niah in Sarawak Malaysia, human Tabon in Palawan, the Philippines, and Australoid fossils from South China, and South Australia.
6. Homo floresienses (Hobbit)
Of which is described like a human and a dwarf stature, has existed since 13,000 years ago means that these dwarf humans live together with other normal human being.
B. Meganthropus Paleojavanicus
Megantropus Paleojavanicus found in Sangiran by Von Koenigswald (1934 and 1941), which at that time found the maxilla and mandible. Early humans where it is expected that the first humans to inhabit the islands of Java and lived between 2 million and 1 million years ago.
C. Pithecanthropus
Pithecanthropus fossils of early human fossils are most commonly found in Indonesia. Pithecanthropus fossils come from the lower and middle Pleistocene.They live by hunting and gathering food they had eaten everything,
but the food is not cooked. Consists of Pithecanthropus
several types, as follows:
a) Pithecanthropus mojokertensis
Mojokertensis Pithecanthropus fossils found by Von Koenigswald Perning village, Valley Mojokerto Solo, East Java in the Lower Pleistocene layer. The findings in the form of fossil children aged around 5 years. This creature, which lived about 2.5 to 2.25 million years ago. Regulated mojokertensis Pithecanthropus straight, his face thrust forward with a thick brow and strong cheekbones.
b) Pithecanthropus Robustus
This type of fossil found by Weidenreich and von Koenigswald in 1939 in the Trinil, Solo Valley. These fossils are from the Lower Pleistocene layer. Von Koenigswald considered Pithecanthropus fossils is similar to mojokertensis.
c) Pithecanthropus erectus
This type of fossil was discovered by Eugene Dubois in the village of Trinil, Ngawi, East Java,
in 1890 came from the Middle Plestosen layer. They live around
one million to one and a half million years ago. Pithecanthropus Erectus walked upright with a straight body and a powerful tool chewers. Pithecanthropus brain volume reaches 900 cc. Modern human brain volume over 1000 cc, while the ape's brain volume is only 600 cc
