Question

Why are the stone tools of the Paleolithic age called Megaliths?

Answer 1

Here's your Answers mate......

A stone tool is, in the most general sense, any tool made either partially or entirely out of stone. Although stone tool-dependent societies and cultures still exist today, most stone tools are associated with prehistoric (particularly Stone Age) cultures that have become extinct. Archaeologists often study such prehistoric societies, and refer to the study of stone tools as lithic analysis. Ethnoarchaeology has been a valuable research field in order to further the understanding and cultural implications of stone tool use and manufacture.[1]

Stone has been used to make a wide variety of different tools throughout history, including arrow heads, spearpoints and querns. Stone tools may be made of either ground stone or chipped stone, and a person who creates tools out of the latter is known as a flintknapper.

Answer 2

Stone tools of the Paleolithic age were known as Megaliths

Explanation:

• Paleolithic was known as the earliest Stone age period that dated 2.6 million years ago. Almost all primitive stone tools distinguish the age. At the period humans were organized into small "units" and engaged in plant gathering, hunting and fishing. At the end of the paleolithic age people developed religious and spiritual convictions
• A megalith (which meant great stones) is a large prehistoric stone which was used to built a structure or monument, alone/together with other stone. Since paleolithic age was characterised by most primitive stones, the tools used in he age was known as megaliths
