Researchers at the British Museum and Natural History Museum have discovered strong evidence from a site in Suffolk that humans created fire around 350-thousand years earlier than was previously thought. The ingredients for a Stone Age ‘lighter’ that could throw sparks were found at Barnham in the west of the county -- and have been written about in the journal Nature. The Â鶹Éç's Science correspondent, Pallab Ghosh, has had exclusive access to the pre-historic location where it all happened. (Picture credit – Getty Images)
