Abstrakt

The first traces the production of numerous stone tools from the period of the
Plio-Pleistocene represent a deep antiquity technical processes in the context
of human evolution. Determining cognitive ability needed to convey the first
hominids manufacture of stone tools is a challenge for the cognitive archaeology.
Currently, thanks to archaeological discoveries and the development
of cognitive science we can try to restore all the necessary treatments aimed
at the production and use of stone tools along with a broad understanding of
their underlying cognitive processes. Analyses based on empirical data derived
from Lokalalei – one of the oldest archaeological sites – indicate that the hominids
comprehensive understanding of the principles of producing stone tools
already at their very beginning.
