[QUOTE="the blacksmith, post: 11155385, member: 20148"]Hello folks, I am hoping that some member here might be able to help me a little please......... Whilst I have hundreds of books on arms and armour, swords and weapons, I have absolutely nothing apart from the odd paragraph in a book on stone age weapons or utensils. I have a few odd items, these are just some of them, that i am going to give to a little girl here in the village who is potty about stones, minerals and the such. However, I would like to be able to tell her at least something about some of the items. The Acheulean items I have been thinking were probably Neolithic, and the two large stone tools Paleolithic, but to be honest, I really have no dea. If anybody can perhaps shed some light on the subject i would be most grateful. As I mentioned in another thread, the workmanship of these tools never ceases to amaze me. They are amazing items to hold in ones hand and imagine who, and when they were used and what for. Hopefully, the young lady (9) will think the same.:) The large hand tool on the left in the last picture is interestting, as it seems the original maker marked it to identify it as his /hers. After all that work they were not going to let some one else take it! [ATTACH=full]537585[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]537586[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]537587[/ATTACH] Thank you for all, and any help![/QUOTE]
