The Human Spark | To Make a Spear

About 100,000 years ago, primitive or Stone Age technology evolved from fashioning hand axes to making projectile tools such as spears. Projective technology allowed humans to hunt animals from a distance, reducing their chances of being injured through the close contact a hand ax tool would require. Hunting with spears also required organization, planning and above all, communication.
