Ancient Wood Discovery in Zambia Could Rewrite Human History 🌍

In 2019, researchers in Zambia stumbled upon an incredible archaeological find at Colombo Falls—nearly half a million-year-old wood that showed signs of human manipulation. This discovery suggests the wood might be part of the earliest known structure in the world. It’s mind-blowing to think that ancient humans were building things so long ago. The find gives us a fascinating glimpse into early human ingenuity. Who knew that something as simple as old wood could rewrite a part of our history?<br /> Credit:<br />Palace of Knossos: Gary Bembridge from London, UK - https://flic.kr/p/2bgUXWL, CC BY 2.0 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/2.0/, https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Palace_of_Knossos_Crete_Greece_(44812341684).jpg <br />Leather shoe: Pinhasi R, Gasparian B, Areshian G, Zardaryan D, Smith A, et al.
