With a crash and a bang, stone tools have been made and used for thousands of years!

In the Neolithic, 6000 years ago, the making of stone tools were part of a way of life radically different from anything that had come before.

Have you ever wondered how stone tools were made?

After a short but sweet introduction into the sounds and forces used in making stone tools you will get the chance to put your own skills to the test by making your very own versions of stone tools.
