A place for enthusiasts of sticks of all shapes and sizes. We all love a good stick! Is it a walking stick? Light Saber? Gun? Looks brown and sticky? You decide!
Feel free to post sticks to rate, sticks that look like things, memes about sticks, long winded rants about the superiority of birch sticks over oak, anything stick related! Natural sticks are preferred, but modification and ornamentation is also fine.

Re-read it again.
I’ve edited it for clairty. Let me summarise this.
Originally assumed to be 400,000 years old due to location.
Later testing shows 300,000 years.
All studies so far say that they are either of these two ranges.
Point 3 is a nothing statement because scientists disagree and thus we have leave it open-ended, even though actual testing of the site points to 300,000 years.
tl;dr: We assumed it was 400,000. We tested and it was actually 300,000. We cant confirm 100%, so we will say it could be either.
