Unlocking the Wisdom of our Stone Age Ancestors: Surprising Lessons for Modern Society

The recent discovery of a 500,000-year-old wooden structure at Kalambo Falls challenges the notion that our Stone Age ancestors were primitive and unsophisticated. This finding highlights their remarkable ability to source and shape wood, and sheds light on their use of sustainable materials in the Early Stone Age. It also demonstrates how long hominins have been interacting with wood as a versatile material for tools, shelters, and possibly even fuel.
