Lower Paleolithic technology

Lower Paleolithic technology refers to the earliest known stage of human tool use, roughly 2.5 million to 300,000 years ago. During this period, early humans primarily made simple stone tools by chipping rocks to create sharp edges. These tools were used for cutting, hunting, and basic tasks. The technology was relatively basic, involving core stones, flakes, and occasional anvils. Despite their simplicity, these tools marked a significant step in human evolution, enabling our ancestors to better exploit their environment and improve their chances of survival.
