The process involves selecting suitable stones, understanding fracture patterns, and applying precise force. These workshops offer hands-on experience, fostering appreciation for early technology, craftsmanship, and the ingenuity involved in prehistoric tool-making. Overall, they blend historical knowledge with practical skills, providing insight into human history and prehistoric innovation.
