In 50,000 BC, significant developments occurred in human history, particularly in tool technology and climate patterns.
Here's a breakdown:
-
Australia: Numerous Aboriginal stone tools were discovered in gravel sediments at Castlereagh, Sydney, Australia. This discovery initially faced skepticism but has since been corroborated by more recent dating of the same strata. This provides evidence of early human habitation in Australia.
-
North Africa: The Mousterian Pluvial began. This was a period of increased rainfall in North Africa, likely influencing vegetation patterns and potentially impacting human migration and settlement.
In summary, 50,000 BC saw evidence of early human activity in Australia through the presence of stone tools and the start of a significant climate shift in North Africa, the Mousterian Pluvial.
