Levallois technique

The Levallois technique is a method used by early humans to create sharp stone tools. Instead of simply chipping away at a rock randomly, they would prepare the stone by shaping it into a specific form. This involved striking flakes off the stone to create a core, which was then carefully struck again to produce predictably shaped, sharp tools. This technique allowed for more efficient tool-making, resulting in stronger and more effective implements for tasks like cutting and hunting. It represents an important advancement in prehistoric tool technology, showcasing human ingenuity and skill.
