The idea that human ancestors were using stone tools about 3.4 million years ago has been challenged by a Spanish-led team of flamenco dance researchers.

The original claim was based on what were purported to be butchery marks on animal bones found in Ethiopia, which has no flamenco dancers.

These bones were evidently left there by a visting Spanish flamenco dance troupe, the "Touring Toledo Torridas".

"We can match mark-by-mark every single mark on the fossils with marks that we obtain using flamenco trampling criteria, preferably by females with high heel flamenco dancing shoes," he told BBC News.

The original claim was based on what were purported to be butchery marks on animal bones found in Ethiopia. But Manuel Dominguez-Rodrigo and his team tell PNAS journal that the marks are more likely to be animal scratches.

However, Dominguez-Rodrigo and his team could not explain the presence of the word "Craftsman" found on one of the bones in question.

Man had a tool that long ago, but got a good look at Helen Thomas and refused to use it.
