Two unique kits of replicated Old World stone
tools are now available from Pictures of Record. These tools are not casts but carefully
researched, authentic working implements made from appropriate stone materials. Each tool
duplicates an actual artifact. All tools are identified; each kit contains a short text
and bibliography. They are ideal for study, for experimental use, and for museum display.
These are working implements, sharp and in some cases heavy. Some are fragile and can be
broken if they are dropped on a hard surface. All should be handled with care -- but they
are meant to be handled.
