Recent studies have revealed that the innovation in stone tool technology, during the time of modern human dispersals, involved multiple stages. This challenges the traditional theories of human evolution. The discovery of mammoth ivory tools in central Europe sheds light on how Stone Age people used teamwork to make sturdy ropes. Additionally, lethally sharp projectile points found in southwestern Idaho, dating back nearly 16,000 years, could be the oldest evidence of the first tool technology brought to the Americas.

"Go further back and the massive extinctions of the Pleistocene megafauna (moas, mammoths, giant sloths, giant kangaroos etc) in North and South America, Australia, Madagascar and New Zealand were achieved by people with stone axes and bows and arrows.
