Hand Axe Made 1.4 Million Years Ago Shows Unexpected Sophistication
The 3-D symmetry and sharpened tip of the rare bone-based artifact shows advances only observed in sites half a million years later
Stone tools from prehistoric times are quite common. Bone tools from prehistoric times are known but they are not common, whether because the hominins didn’t make as many or because, being organic, they decayed into dust over time.
Which thus leads to the obvious observation that bone and wood tools were also used but the rocks are all that generally survived.
Something is wrong here. War, disease, death, destruction, hunger, filth, poverty, torture, crime, corruption, and the Ice Capades. Something is definitely wrong. This is not good work. If this is the best God can do, I am not impressed.
