The advent of simple tools gave human ancestors a competitive edge against the larger, stronger, and more ferocious beasts of the age. Even the most basic stone tools developed over time, growing increasingly complex and varied from the earliest sharp rocks that served as a catch-all for many hunter-gatherer societies. Beyond that, these tools and their developments showed increased cognition among early hominids and spoke to their resourcefulness and understanding of the world.

Blade Cores
Blade cores were chunks of sharp rocks used as the source for other types of tools. Pieces of stone would be flaked off of the core, in the shape of thin, rectangle-like chips; these were crafted into knives, scrapers, spear blades, hand axes and other tools and weapons. Blade cores were so crudely fashioned that it is sometimes impossible for archaeologists to tell if a stone is a tool or a naturally formed rock.
End Scrapers
An end scraper is a tear-drop shaped piece of stone used to scrape fur and fatty tissue from the hides of animals, though they also could have been used to smooth wood or bones as well. Anthropologists believe that end scrapers were not only handheld tools but were also sometimes attached to a wood handle. The main purpose of the tool appears to have been to aid in the production of animal hide clothing and shelter.
