1.Walking effect
Explanation:
According to savanna theory when the early hominids leave the trees and started finding food in the vast savanna plain they need to walk long distances.. this made them bipedals...
2.Flakes and Cores. Stone tools were made by taking a piece of stone and knocking off flakes, a process known as "knapping." When the flakes were used, the tools produced are referred to as "flake tools." When the core itself was used, it is referred to as a "core tool."
3The microliths were used in spear points and arrowheads. Microliths are produced from either a small blade (microblade) or a larger blade-like piece of flint by abrupt or truncated retouching, which leaves a very typical piece of waste, called a microburin
4.The early discovery of fire had numerous benefits to the early hominids. With fire, they were able to protect themselves from the terrain, and were also able to devise an entirely new way of hunting. Evidence of fire has been found in caves, suggesting that fire was used to keep the early hominids warm.
5.Core tools were made by chipping and shaping large stones. ... Flake tools were tools made from smaller pieces of stone and were used as choppers and cleavers to chop meat and skin animals. The first image is a collection of core tools. The second image is a collection of flake tools, also called flake implements.
