Solution
The Palaeolithic humans were the first to make stone implements. Earlier, they used stones as they found them and then threw them away. Later, they began making crude unpolished stone tools. Large pieces of stones were shaped into hammers, scrapers, and axe heads. These tools were used for cutting trees, killing and skinning animals, chopping meat, and digging up roots.
