Toolkit Contents

The owner of a 14,000-year-old bag was well equipped for hunting and gathering. The contents, pictured, here, include a sickle for harvesting wild plants, a cluster of flint spearheads, a flint core for making more spearheads, a cluster of gazelle toe bones, and part of a second bone tool.

Another one was found over in Indonesia. They refer to that collection as the “Java tools”.

work activities were more gender-blind than thought during prehistoric times, Edwards theorized.

For instance, in a nearby women's hut, researchers found a bowl with ancient popcorn kernels and a crude TV remote set to Monday Night Football.

In other words, what a crock (sorry!). To the university set, copulation outside of marriage is a routine idea, but sex is the ultimate scandal.
