Archaeologists differ on whether the prehistoric objects are tools

Archaeologists in South Carolina last month announced radiocarbon dates suggesting, they said, that people made tools on a wooded hillside near the Savannah River about 50,000 years ago.

That would be more than 35,000 years earlier than any established evidence for human occupation in the Americas - a stunning discovery, if true, and one which some experienced archaeologists are questioning.
