People began using stone tools around 3.3 million years ago during the Paleolithic era, with the oldest known tools found in Ethiopia. The development of stone tools marked a significant leap in human evolution and allowed for more effective hunting, crafting, and survival skills.
Paleolithic people adapted to their environment by using tools made from stone, bone, and wood to hunt animals, gather food, and create shelter. They also utilized fire for warmth, protection, cooking, and tool-making. These adaptations allowed them to survive and thrive in a wide range of environments across the world.
The people of Jericho used tools made from stone, such as flint, chert, and obsidian, for various tasks like hunting, cutting, and scraping. These tools were primarily crafted using techniques like flaking and grinding to shape the stones into sharp edges for different purposes.
Limestone is too soft for use as tools. The Egyptians built monument out of limestone using tools made of harder stone - Flint, granite, etc. (and some copper tools)
During the Paleolithic Era, people were nomads and Paleolithic was known as old stone age. People were nomads in which they moved from place to place in search of food and shelter. They also made simple tools using bone, wood, and stone. They use fire and make clothes from animal skin (hide). Women also gathered berries and Men hunt for buffalo. They love in groups of 15-20 people.
Humans began using simple stone tools around 2.6 million years ago during the Paleolithic period. This period marked the beginning of early human technological advancements, characterized by the production and use of basic tools made from stone, bone, and wood.
in paleolithic age people have always eat meat.Meat give them a lots of energy and of course heat so they survive in northern part of the world or the skins from the animals they have killed for food used them as clothing against the cold specifically the northern part

The Paleolithic era ended with the ice age.
The Paleolithic ("old stone") period covers the majority of human existence on Earth, from the time of the hominids through early societies using stone tools and developing agriculture. It was followed by the Mesolithic Age ("middle stone").
Homo neanderthalensis is associated with the Mousterian tool technology, characterized by the production of stone tools using the Levallois technique. These tools were often made using flint and were used for cutting, scraping, and hunting activities.
Mesolithic tools were typically made using a technique called flint knapping. This involves striking a piece of flint or other stone with a hard tool to create sharp edges for cutting and scraping. Mesolithic tools were also sometimes shaped by grinding or polishing the edges for finer cutting precision.
