Question

Give reasons for the following.
1. Historians mainly depend on fossils and
archaeological sources for the reconstruction of
the Stone Age.​

Answer 1

As it took place many years ago, there is no evidence on how life was back then. Hence, archaeologists mainly depend on fossils and other sources for reconstruction of stone age. This may cause confusions, resulting in errors in the reconstruction of stone age.

Answer 2

Answer:

The Stone Age was a broad prehistoric period during which stone was widely used to make tools with an edge, a point, or a percussion surface. The period lasted for roughly 3.4 million years,[1] and ended between 8700 BCE and 2000 BCE ,[citation needed] with the advent of metalworking.Though some simple metalworking of malleable metals, particularly the use of gold and copper for purposes of ornamentation, was known in the Stone Age, it is the melting and smelting of copper that marks the end of the Stone Age.In western Asia this occurred by about 3000 BCE, when bronze became widespread. The term Bronze Age is used to describe the period that followed the Stone Age, as well as to describe cultures that had developed techniques and technologies for working copper into tools, supplanting stone in many uses.
