Archaeologists Reconstruct the 'Invisible' Technologies of the Stone Age
Original: Archaeologists Are Reconstructing the 'Invisible' Technologies of the Stone Age
Archaeologists are working to recreate the perishable technologies of the Stone Age, such as rope, thread and twine, which rarely survive in the archaeological record. By studying wear patterns and using experimental methods, researchers are revealing how early humans developed sophisticated fibre crafts that were essential to daily life but left almost no direct traces.
Why now: A Smithsonian feature on hidden Stone Age fibre technologies is drawing wide interest among science and technology readers.
