How Were Intricate Prehistoric Tools Like Clovis Points Crafted? Have you ever wondered how ancient peoples crafted the tools that helped them survive and thrive during the Ice Age? In this fascinating video, we'll explain the process behind creating some of the most famous prehistoric tools, known for their precision and effectiveness. We'll start by discussing how early humans selected the right types of stone, such as flint and chert, which fracture predictably and are ideal for shaping. Then, we'll explore how they used soft percussion techniques with antlers or bones to remove large flakes and give the stone a rough shape. Next, we'll cover the detailed process of pressure flaking, where small flakes are carefully chipped away to refine the tool’s edges and shape. One of the most distinctive features of these tools is the flute — a long, narrow channel carved into the base to facilitate attachment to a spear shaft. We’ll explain how this was achieved and why it was so important. Making these tools required patience, skill, and knowledge passed down through generations, demonstrating the technological capabilities of prehistoric peoples. These tools played a vital role in hunting large animals and adapting to diverse environments.
