A Homo fossil was found near some Oldowan tools‚ and its age was noted at 2.3 million years old‚ suggesting that maybe the Homo species did indeed create and use these tools. It is surely possible‚ but not solid evidence. Bernard Wood noted that "Paranthropus" coexisted with the early Homo species in the area of the "Oldowan Industrial Complex"

a group of scientists found the partial skeleton of a new human species we had never seen before. Researchers called the remains LB1‚ also nicknamed the hobbit due to its small size.
