Evaluate the drafted changes
(Compose a detailed peer review here, considering each of the key aspects listed above if it is relevant. Consider the guiding questions, and check out the examples of what feedback looks like.)

This is a great first draft; it adds some really important content to the article. I have a few suggestions below for rephrasing certain sentences so they read more clearly. Additionally, I have one suggestion: many of the sentences in the original article do not have references, so if you were able to improve the article by adding references where necessary that would really improve it!

Peer review suggestions
The discovery of the Wushan Man and its related materials  including  various vertebrate fossils, and stone artifacts such as cores, points, scrapers,  and  drilling tools show evidence of human agency. Th ese artifacts  is important because it suggest that the creators of these tools have made the change from tool-using to tool-making.

According to Nature:"The new evidence suggests that hominids entered Asia before 2 Myr, coincident with the earliest diversification of genus Homo in Africa. Clearly, the first hominid to arrive in Asia was a species other than true H. erectus, and one that possessed a stone-based technology. A pre-erectus hominid in China as early as 1.9 Myr provides the most likely antecedents for the in situ evolution of Homo erectus in Asia.p. 278"This makes its status as a Homo fossil critically important to the study of human origins as it suggests that H. erectus was not the first human species to leave Africa. This fossil  is also used as evidence by proponents of the hypothesis  that H. erectus evolved in Asia instead of Africa. The discovery of Homo floresiensis is significant to this theory of pre-erectus hominin evolving in Asia. Recent research finds that its wrist and foot bones are anatomically like those of H. habilis or Australopithecus. Evidence for pre-erectus Homo in Asia would be consistent with such a possible origin.

A middle school textbook, The Chinese History (published by People's Education Press), has plans to include the discovery of "Wushan Man" as a part of its content.
