life of stone age
The Stone Age occurred before the metal was known and the tools of culture were mainly made of stone beside wood and bone. This stone age was re-epitomized into 4 ages, among others:
The old stone age (palaeolitikum) is so called because man-made stone tools are still roughly crafted, not sharpened or polished. When viewed from the angle of its livelihood, this period is called the period of food gathering (gathering food), humans are still living in nomadic (moving) and do not know how to grow crops.
There are two cultures that are the standard of this age, namely:
- Pacitan Culture (Pithecanthropus)
- Culture Ngandong, Blora (Homo Wajakinensis and Homo Soloensis)
The tools produced include: handheld ax / perimbas (chopper / cutter), Tools of animal bones or deer horns and Flakes from Chalcedon stone (for peeling food)
