flag Stone tools found in Sulawesi suggest early human ancestors lived there up to 1.48 million years ago.

flag Archaeologists have unearthed stone tools in Sulawesi, Indonesia, dating back 1.04 to 1.48 million years, suggesting early human ancestors inhabited the island far earlier than previously thought. flag The tools, found at the Calio site, indicate that these ancient humans were capable of crossing sea barriers without boats, pushing back the timeline of human presence on the island by hundreds of thousands of years. flag The identity of the toolmakers is unknown, but their presence raises questions about their abilities and the evolutionary adaptations that occurred on the isolated island.
