The Stone Age has witnessed
how humans were able to lead
more stable lives and eventually
come up with permanent shelters
and tools for survival.
Stone Age is a term
used to describe a period
of history when stones
were used to make tools
for survival.
humans made tools and weapons with stone and organic materials
such as bone, horn, and wood. These humans were called Homo
Habilis which means tool makers.
The first human tool was the hand axe, but
they gradually made progress and started
using fire and making better tools.
Though prehistoric humans would not necessarily possess the
complex rational capabilities to tell their story through written
records and accounts, some artifacts in the form of cave paintings
and sculptures would serve as the "storytellers."
