“tools dating back more than 800,000 years ago”
Yep. They know because of the minerals they found it in.
And they date those minerals by the artifacts found in it...

Early humans may have moved north into the chilly latitudes of Europe hundreds of thousands of years before mastering a crucial technology: Fire.Wait a minute... I thought Prometheus gave fire to man, against the wishes of the mighty Zeus.

The researchers' conclusion is controversial, because others have put early humans' mastery of fire earlier in our history, as long ago as 2 million years It wouldn't be the only time the technology of fire was lost.
When the Brits showed up the native Tasmanians were ignorant of fire.
