Homo Erectus was making tools about 1.8 million years ago. Axe heads are common finds in some sites, these tools were probably used to help break up animals, hacking off a leg and so forth; though undoubtedly it was a short leap to weapon use. Their origins are debated but north-east Africa remains at the top of the running. It is here that Erectus' tool use seems to have evolved. Though they ranged out to the Mediterranean basin and beyond. They wandered about with their neighbors homo habilis, who also used primitive tools, but are generally believed to have had access to scrapers and the like.
No doubt Erectus walloped a few Habilis from time to time. Fella's gotta eat.
