  Is walking 8 miles particularly notable? Is it a typo and they mean 18 miles or something? For someone reasonably fit 8 miles is maybe a 2 hour walk. You’d leave in the morning and be back for lunchtime.

  I regularly walk that far before breakfast.

    The notable part is that it indicates sophisticated tool making behavior 600,000 years before we previously thought it occurred.

    They didn’t walk 8 miles to do a Marathon, they didn’t walk 8 miles for any type of food. They walked 8 miles to find a perfect rock.

      To find the perfect tool. Sounds reasonable.

  I’m a little surprised ~7-hours round trip is considered long distance.

    They’ve gone far away, to the temple of Rocks, to find the perfect rock to fit their weapon.

  I also recommend using Tor to access websites. Knowledge should be a right.
