Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This valuable book is a rich compendium of stone implements used by the earliest humans in India. It gathers decades of research on over a hundred sites and artifacts across the country. The author, a respected archaeologist, analyzes the geology of each site, providing a unique and comprehensive view of the lives of prehistoric human beings. These stone tools, fashioned from quartzite, trap, and more, are divided into three main groups: disks, ovals, and choppers. Their shapes and usage establish an identity distinct from similar tools found in other parts of the world, implying that a specific group of early humans used these tools and likely did not originate from other populations. These implements add an exciting chapter to the story of human evolution and habitation across the globe.
