 | | Stone Age Institute researchers are collecting such essential data at a number of early Stone Age localities (Gona, Ethiopia; Ain Hanech, Algeria; Transvaal, South Africa; Nihewan Basin, China) documenting the emergence, development, and spread of tool-making hominids in key areas of the world where this evidence is preserved. |
 | | Stone Age Institute researchers Travis Pickering, Charles Egeland, Nicholas Toth, and Kathy Schick have engaged in a variety of experimental studies of processing carcasses of animals that had died of natural causes. |
 | | Stone Age Institute graduate researcher, Leslie Harlacker, is currently conducting a comprehensive study comparing the biomechanical patterns of tool-making among human novices to those observed in experienced stone knappers, and also comparing the patterns of humans to tool-making apes, as part of her Ph.D. dissertation research. |
