A new study has revealed that our ancient ancestors, Homo erectus, were capable of living in diverse environments and making different kinds of stone tools. The study, which re-examinedjawbone found in Ethiopia in 1981, shows that Homo erectus had reached the high-altitude regions of the Ethiopian highlands two million years ago, where they used both Oldowan and Acheulean tools.
