A must-see cave, this natural underground site revealed the existence of homo floresiensis thanks to a fascinating discovery in 2003

The Liang Bua cave revealed the existence of homo floresiensis. In 2003, an exceptional find was made: 6 metres underground, a small human skull, first mistaken for that of a child, emerged, followed shortly afterwards by an almost complete skeleton. These relics were to revolutionize our understanding of human evolution.

A museum presents these fascinating discoveries. Here you can admire the first skeleton, that of "Flores's wife".
