I was incorrect on the 60,000 years as possible age of the tribe. The estimate is 50,000 years. But who knows, either figure would be hard to verify, especially without a blood test sample from one of them. I hope that never happens but who knows.

As for making fire, the timeline was much older than 55,000 or 60,000 years ago.
