old weapons found in Andhra Pradesh: Changed the history of civilization.

1 lakh 39 thousand year old weapons found in Andhra Pradesh. Changed history Changed the history of civilization!

1 lakh 39 thousand year old weapons found in Andhra Pradesh! Shocked archaeologists, shocked scientists. Because these stone weapons are so ancient that Homo sapiens or modern humans did not even set foot in this region at that time. Based on all the evidence found so far, scientists claim that 60-70 thousand years ago Homo sapiens spread across the world from Africa.

India also came at that time. So, who made these weapons 1 lakh 39 thousand years ago? Who used all that?

 

Although the age of the tools baffles scientists, one thing they are sure of is that these complex stone weapons were not made by modern humans, Homo sapiens. A team of Indian and German scientists published the results of this study in the journal PLoS One.
Until now, it was assumed that only Homo sapiens could make such tools. But excavations near a village called Retlapalle in Prakasam district have unearthed stone tools from the “Middle-Paleolithic” period. As a result, scientists now think that the art of making tools was probably known to some ancient extinct human-like species.

However, such ancient weapons have been found in India before.
About two decades ago, similar stone tools were found in excavations at a prehistoric site called Atthirampakkam near Chennai.

They were estimated to be 372,000 to 170,000 years old. About 10 years ago, an archeological study in Javalapuram, Andhra Pradesh, discovered a 77,000-year-old stone tool. A few years ago at Atthirampakkamei, historians Shanti Pappu and Kumar Akhilesh of the Sharma Center for Heritage Education discovered a 1.5 million-year-old tool. A 12 lakh year old weapon has also been found at a site in Karnataka.

From all these discoveries, some scientists claimed that Homo sapiens or modern humans probably lived in this region 125,000 years ago.

However, another section of scientists claim that these ancient tools were made by another extinct species called ‘Homo erectus’. They were the ancestors of Homo sapiens. Experts believe they lived across Africa and Asia from 16 million years ago to at least 250 million years ago.

The recent excavations in Andhra were led by Anil Deora, Assistant Professor in the Department of Archeology at the Maharaja Sayajirao University of Baroda. He said that discoveries like Attirampakkam and Ratlepalla in India have also been made in Europe.

This puts a big question mark on the idea that tools were developed after the arrival of modern humans.

He also said that stone weapons made around the same period of the Middle-Paleolithic period have been found in Africa, Europe and South Asia. They were built long before modern humans arrived in these parts of the world. However, no fossils of the Homo erectus species have been found from such archaeological dig sites.

Hence, it is very difficult to determine who made them.
