    The document discusses the prehistoric biface/hand axe tool. It was likely first invented to aid in hunting animals and gathering resources by flaking stone into a pointed spear head shape. The biface tool could have been used as an axe, for digging, chopping wood, or throwing as spears at animals. Over time, the biface evolved and was adapted for uses as hammers, cutters, scrapers, and other multi-purpose tools. The biface design became the blueprint for many modern tools and weapons such as hand axes, spears, and spades.

    The Prehistoric

    Biface/ Hand Axe


    Ben Vogel

    Inventors Thought
    The inventor most likely needed a way to

    chop wood or hunt animals effectively, so


    he decided to flake a stone until it was
    pointed at one end like a spear head.

    Why was it invented?


    The biface was most likely invented as a way to

    hunt animals, dig for resources, chop wood or


    bark, or to throw at animals in the form of
    spears.
    The tool was most likely used first as an axe or

    as a tool for physical activity. It then developed


    or was used as a hammer, cutter, scraper, or
    other multi tool.

    Evolution

    The biface is the blueprint


    for many tools and
    weapons used today such
    as the hand axe, spear, and
    spade.
