I was lucky enough to have been shown this material a few months ago. They are incredible and such an important new dataset for understanding early Acheuelan technological behaviours.
Ancient humans were systematically producing bone tools as early as 1.5 million years ago, according to a study in Nature. Bone tools discovered in Tanzania pre-date previous evidence of systematic bone tool production by more than a million years. https://go.nature.com/3XpB20D 🏺 🧪
