Hello there and happy holidays. I feel like they weee used for everything from hunting, food prep, tool and shelter building to defending themselves against other tribes and animals. They were surly used for trading also. They shaped and made different games to play, art and even pleasure. Just about every aspect of life needed stone in one way or another. Take care buddy. Be safe
I always enjoy your chert hunts and how you keep it real. Some interesting looking material, really nice large biface you chipped out. I hope to see you and spend some time with you when you pass through my area.
When ancient people crafted their tools, wasit purely survival? or something much deeper? Whats your thoughts?

Probably deeper considering red ochre use
