Template:Ratings Template:New Content Homo floresiensis, known to the Forerunners as Florians and called Hamanune by contemporary humans themselves, were a species of human native to Earth, specific to the island of Flores in Indonesia, surviving up until around 13,000 B.C.E. and possibly as recently as 12,000 B.C.E., living contemporaneously with "modern" humans, Homo sapiens[1]. They possessed more "primitive" characteristics than modern humans, including a reduced mandible, lacking a chin, and a smaller cranial capacity and proportionally smaller brain, though were still intelligent. Their most outstanding feature was their small stature, standing at a little over a metre tall.[2]

Before the activation of the Halo Array, Florians seem to have had extensive contact with other human species, and one, Riser, served as a guide to a young Forerunner looking for Precursor artefacts.[1]
