Early stone tools, known as Oldowan tools, represent the earliest evidence of human technology.

These simple implements—hammerstones, cores, choppers, and sharp flakes—were made by striking one stone against another to create cutting edges for butchering animals, processing plants, or scraping hides. They were likely produced by early hominins like Homo habilis or even earlier species such as Australopithecus.

NM is from New Mexico, a key region for Paleoindian archaeology in North America, where evidence pushes back human presence via tools and footprints (e.g., White Sands National Park, ~21,000–23,000 years old).
