The remains of Homo erectus found in Java, probably dating from c 1 million to 500,000 BP, by E. Dubois in 1891. Dubois, however, originally classified his find as Pithecanthropus erectus. Other fossils from Sangiran and the remains of an infant from Modjokerto indicate that H. erectus occupied Java during the middle Pleistocene Epoch.
