Early Neolithic Stone 4.92" Handaxe/Biface

Early Neolithic Stone 4.92" Handaxe/Biface

The oldest knowledge of humankind we have doesn’t come from stories or recorded histories, but the stones our ancient ancestors left behind.


Commonly known as handaxes, the true span of their use went far beyond that. Choppers, blades, scrapers, points, and crushing tools have all been discovered and many tools may have been reshaped over time to be used for new purposes. This specimen is a 4.92" handaxe/biface from North Africa and is dated to roughly 12,000 years old.
