They date back more than 10,000 years. Small pieces of stone -- the largest just over 2 inches long -- that could help explain a whole culture.

So far, 2,001 artifacts have been found at a construction site on the edge of Blair County, near the Bedford County line, just off Interstate 99. The people who roamed Central Pennsylvania around 8000 B.C. shaped these stones for use as blades to cut meat, perhaps; or for scrapers, possibly used to separate the fur from the hide on wild game they ate.
