Interesting. I have a Neanderthal hand axe in my collection.

(My greatest fear is that when I'm gone my wife will sell my guns for what I told her I paid for them)
Somewhere around here I have a stone that had been used as a handaxe. It was not terribly worn. Hard to tell which culture since we found it in an area with a lot of Clovis material as well as Early Woodland.
It's fun to have such things around for the guests. Growing up my folks used an ancient Indian grind stone as a door stop.
