Al Beeb is all excited.
Why?
| A stunning discovery at an archaeological dig in the UK is rewriting the timeline of when humans first made fire. |
What discovery?
| Researchers have discovered the earliest known instance of human-created fire, which took place in the east of England 400,000 years ago. |
Yes, but where?
| The new discovery, in the village of Barnham, pushes the origin of human fire-making back by more than 350,000 years, far earlier than previously thought. |
I'm supposing "previously thought" means 50K years.

Not the first time sleepy Suffolk has turned up a "stunning discovery". See Sutton Hoo.
