Description

Explore a new perspective on the long-term trajectories of evolutionary change in Paleolithic tools and tool-makers. For more than 3 million years, members of the human lineage have produced stone tools that serve as primary evidence for major developments in hominin behavior and cognition. This volume moves away from traditional approaches that rely on progressive stages of development. Instead, it examines global trends across six separate dimensions of technological behavior. Spanning the period between 2.6 million and 10,000 years ago, this work provides a detailed look at how technology evolved throughout human history. As part of the Routledge Studies in Archaeology series, this book offers a deep look into the artifacts that define our past. It is an essential resource for those studying the relationship between early human cognition and the tools they created to survive and adapt.
