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?
