A study reveals that 400,000 years ago, early humans developed Quina scrapers for hunting, adapting to the disappearance of elephants and forming a cultural link to the resource-rich Mountains of Samaria... I'm guessing is that they haven't found evidences of wooden weapons. Dropping an elephant is very simple with the simplest of spears, as a gut-stab will have the elephand dead of peritonitis in about three days. One need only follow it after inflicting the wound.

A study by Tel Aviv University reveals the earliest use of Quina scrapers 400,000 years ago, reflecting a shift in hunting practices due to the extinction of large game like elephants. The research indicates a significant cultural and practical evolution in early human societies, linking tool technology with the sacred geographical sources of resources.
