Scientists have recently discovered that humans used fire 350,000 years earlier than previously thought, as the BBC article reports. The Bible, however, reported 3,500 years ago that the earliest humans used fire. If scientists had believed the Bible, they would have already known this, which gives Bible believers quite an advantage over non-believers.
“The law of Yahweh is perfect, restoring the soul, The testimony of Yahweh is sure, making wise the simple” (Psalm 19:7LSB).” . . . making the inexperienced wise” (Psalm 19:7 CSB) Secular history of events prior to the global flood of Genesis 6-8, 4,500-5,500 years ago, is non-existent, so the only reliable history of that time is recorded in the Bible, which is one way that ‘Yahweh God makes the inexperienced wise’.

“The figure was carved from granite in an era when there were no metal tools available”???
BBC News posted an article on February 14, 2017 entitled: “Greece Displays ‘7,000-year-old archaeological enigma.” The article says the carved object is “7,000 years old, prior to the time that humans had developed metal tools”. Scientists have postulated that it took thousands of years of human evolution for humans to begin working with tools.
“Zillah also had a son, Tubal-Cain, who forged all kinds of tools out of bronze and iron” (Genesis 4:22 NIV). If scientists believed that the Bible accurately reports on matters from the distant past, they would have already known this. Nevertheless, the fact is that science has discovered what the Bible accurately 3,500 years ago — that the earliest humans used tools.
Too bad they ignore the Bible, because, instead it taking “thousands of years of human evolution for humans to begin working with tools,” the Bible accurately reports that within the first eight generations of human existence, which was at least 5,000 years ago (or, at least 6,000 years ago according to the ages listed in the Septuagint in Genesis 5 & 11), humans had developed metal tools. (Genesis 4:1; Genesis 4:17-22 NJB) Tubal-cain, the Bible reports, “was the ancestor of all who work copper and iron”, was in the 9th generation of humans, rather than 2.75 million years ago, or earlier. This would demystify scientists’ “enigma.”
Thus, the truth of God’s word is proven yet again. the Bible has the answer for the archaeological enigma.
“God must be true, though every human being is a liar, as it is written: ‘That you may be justified in your words, and conquer when you are judged’”—Romans 3:4NAB
The more evolutionary scientists discover, the more they find the need to revise their evolutionary theory, and the more the Bible is verified as being historically and scientifically accurate.

BBC posted an article on September 15, 2015claiming that a new “human-like species” has been discovered in South Africa, which they have given the name naledi. The discovery of 15 partial skeletons has led some researchers to conclude that may be a different species of human-like creatures than was previously known. From these partial skeletons pictures have been drawn showing what the researchers think these creatures may have looked like.
We knew Darwinian evolution was in “crisis” mode, but this discovery really takes the cake! Evolutionists don’t know what to make of it, or how to fit it into their theory. Why? Because it doesn’t fit (just like some other discoveries). Of course, artists can draw fictional images that fit whatever they want it to.

But the facts are that these bones appear to be fully human. Look at the hands pictured in the article, for example. They look just like modern ones, but evidently an older person with arthritis. Look at some older people today, especially those who’ve done a lot of manual labor – they are very similar to these curved fingers.

“Have We Underestimated Our Ancestors?” – Early Humans?
A BBC News article dated August 19, 2015 says that evidence from a variety of sources suggests that early humans were much more sophisticated than we could have imagined.
Here we go again. More and more discoveries are proving evolutionary theories wrong. The first humans were much more complex than they imagined. That is just what the Bible said about our early ancestors all along. For example, the very earliest humans mentioned in Genesis:
