One-hit wonders: spear points from the Kimberley
Today we update the latest technology almost minute by minute, but these
artifacts are examples of technology that was in use for millennia.
I use an edge ground stone axe from the Capertee Valley as a paper weight, yet it is an example of a breakthrough in technology that lasted at least six thousand years, perhaps longer? Perhaps like Alice in Wonderland we are running harder to stay in the same place?
