Stone tools from this broad cultural period provide a direct connection to the practical skills and resourcefulness of prehistoric communities. Scrapers are a familiar category within lithic studies and are generally associated with activities requiring a worked edge, although the specific use of an individual artefact should not be assumed without specialist analysis.
