Yeah, not so much.
They found a single bone.
One. Bone.
And the bone they found shows signs of tool-use. Too bad they didn't find any of those tools.
1.5 million years ago, our human ancestors were basically walking chimps. No, they did not use complex tools.

That image looks shopped
Here is another discovery on evolution today.

Interesting post. Thanks for sharing!
Glad you liked it, CPF.
Some people can unwrap a stick of gum and unlock the secrets of the Universe, while others can sit on top of a gold mine all of their lives without realize what is within their grasp.
It is shopped!
I think the image is trying to show the position of the bone in a hand.. bugged me for a few too.
not quite true. hominin species were making tool from about 2.5 million years ago. Could even be earlier but there no evidence to support tool use before that date
The bone and the hand are from two different light sources. So, yes, the photo was Photoshopped.
The discovery makes humans using tools longer than originally believed.

Not even slightly true. You really just poop out of your mouth, don't you? Humans have been using tools for millions of years.
Am I? It was originally believe the Cro-Magno Man was on Earth for only 40,000 years. In recent years, older civilizations have been discovered.
I have no idea what the point is that you think you are making.
The first civilisations started popping up around 11-9000 years ago? this is supported by archaeological evidence, if you know of any earlier ones, do let me know.
The articles reference to humans is slightly misleading as they appear to be referring to the homini species in general and not modern humans as we are now.
