A stone tool or artifact that is ancient or prehistoric, especially one used by early humans.
From Greek 'archaeo-' (ancient) + 'lithos' (stone). This scientific term developed in the 19th century to classify primitive stone implements found in archaeological digs.
Archaeoliths are basically the silent witnesses to human ingenuity—a single stone tool can tell us whether our ancestors hunted, gathered, or made fire, and how smart they actually were.
