Not Homo sapiens, late H. erectus or a very early neanderthalensis.

“The primary studies on the tools did not reveal their exact age, so the tools were sent to Professor Marcel Otte of the University of Liege in Belgium. He happened to be in Iran and he dated the tools to be 400,000 years old,” Mahforuzi explained.

This is where the 400K number came from. Give the stone tools to me and I will 'date' them to whatever age you desire.
