On 20th April 2020, the University of Tübingen and the Senckenberg Society for Natural Research announced the discovery of a 300,000-year-old throwing stick. This wooden object shows signs of workmanship and traces of its use as a hunting weapon. I wondered if it was bent like a boomerang when i first saw the title, then realized that wouldn't be invented yet.
