Oldest Javelins Predate Modern Humans, Raise Questions on Evolution

The oldest known stone-tipped projectiles have been discovered in Ethiopia.
The javelins are roughly 280,000 years old and predate the earliest known fossils of our species, Homo sapiens, by about 80,000 years.

Great news, but not that surprising since Homo Erectus (from 1.8 million years ago) and Neanderthals (from 600,000 years ago) were already hunters. I can't imagine apes hunting game, even small one, without some sort of weapons.

Yes, great discovery. Knowing that people roasted meats with the fire for a million years, it means that they developed technics and hunting equipment much earlier than current discoveries show.
