Well, sounds like evolutionists should have a problem with this. How would humans of 40,000 years ago be less evolved than “Pre-human” ancestors of 130,000 years ago?

The oldest homo sapiens sapiens fossils are from S Africa and are dated to 150,000 years ago.

Modern man is around 50,000 years old. All of our technical achievements are built on previous generations. The pre-humans of 130,000 years ago were building on the achievements of their previous generations. I can understand how pre-humans would be more technologically advanced than humans were 40,000 years ago. The pace of technological advancement was horribly slow, especially in the first 10,000 years of modern man.

Technology started over 2 million years ago with the stone shapers. Over 500,000 years ago, pre-humans in china were using fire for light, warmth, protection and cooking.

No need to confuse evolution and technological advancement.

It wasn’t until 20,000 years ago that modern man created the bow and arrow. That’s 30,000 years to create something that a 3 year old can easily grasp today.
