Oldest Fire Just Discovered Pushes Back Timeline! (Michael Button)

A groundbreaking new discovery has just pushed back the origins of making fire by over 350,000 years

However, I believe there is strong evidence, that human fire making goes back much much further than even that

Evidence that suggests this key signifier of intelligence and ability is way older than this discovery suggests, implying modern human behaviour is also vastly older than we thought



Fire may have been used at least one million years ago.
