Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Stone Implements of South Africa The object of this little volume is to co-ordinate the various discoveries of Stone Implements that I have made during the last four years - discoveries that I venture to think, mark a new era in our knowledge of the Stone Age of South Africa. No attempt will be made to review the abundant, but unsatisfactory, literature already in existence. The typical Palæolithic (Achoulic) implements are here used as a datum line. All groups below that standard are classed as "Primitive," all groups above it are spoken of as "Advanced." My definition of the terms Eolithic, Palæolithic and Neolithic requires a word of explanation. Although they are now universally employed, the sense in which they are used is very far from uniform. Stone implements like all other things, show a progressive evolution from very primitive to very advanced forms. The terms Eolithic, Palæolithic and Neolithic are expressive of certain stages in that progress. In the restricted sense in which they are used by me the three stages are represented by the groups met with in the plateau gravels, valley-drifts and alluvial flats of the extreme south of Britain respectively. I am glad to have this opportunity to acknowledge my indebtedness to my friend, Professor R. B. Young, of Johannesburg. Many of the more interesting discoveries described herein were made during an expedition as his guest. To him anthropology - of which I account myself a humble student - is under deep obligation. All figures are of the same size as the originals. In this edition I have included some further discoveries and have added a number of new illustrations. The arrangement of the data remains the same, but a closer classification of the different groups has been deemed desirable. I have therefore replaced the somewhat comprehensive terms Primitive, Palæolithic and Advanced, by the current European nomenclature, Eolithic, Strepyic, Palæolithic or Acheulic, Solutric and Neolithic.

Download or read book The Lives of Stone Tools written by Kathryn Weedman Arthur and published by University of Arizona Press. This book was released on 2018-04-24 with total page 329 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Lives of Stone Tools gives voice to the Indigenous Gamo lithic practitioners of southern Ethiopia. For the Gamo, their stone tools are alive, and their work in flintknapping is interwoven with status, skill, and the life histories of their stone tools. Anthropologist Kathryn Weedman Arthur offers insights from her more than twenty years working with the Gamo. She deftly addresses historical and present-day experiences and practices, privileging the Gamo’s perspectives. Providing a rich, detailed look into the world of lithic technology, Arthur urges us to follow her into a world that recognizes Indigenous theories of material culture as valid alternatives to academic theories. In so doing, she subverts long-held Western perspectives concerning gender, skill, and lifeless status of inorganic matter. The book offers the perspectives that, contrary to long-held Western views, stone tools are living beings with a life course, and lithic technology is a reproductive process that should ideally include both male and female participation. Only individuals of particular lineages knowledgeable in the lives of stones may work with stone technology. Knappers acquire skill and status through incremental guided instruction corresponding to their own phases of maturation. The tools’ lives parallel those of their knappers from birth (procurement), circumcision (knapping), maturation (use), seclusion (storage), and death (discardment). Given current expectations that the Gamo’s lithic technology may disappear with the next generation, The Lives of Stone Tools is a work of vital importance and possibly one of the last contemporaneous books about a population that engages with the craft daily.
