EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the skilled hand of archaeologist M. Leon Coutier as he meticulously finishes an Acheulean-type hand-axe, using a boxwood hammer and applying light, precise blows to the roughed-out edge. The image is a modern reconstruction of prehistoric skill, showcasing the artisanal craftsmanship that defined the Stone Age. Coutier, who dedicated years of study to the Paleolithic forms, has produced an object indistinguishable from the tools of man in various stages of Stone-Age culture. His mastery of the technique is a testament to the ingenuity and resourcefulness of our ancient ancestors. This photograph, taken in 1947, offers a fascinating glimpse into the past and the painstaking process of creating tools that were essential for survival during the Paleolithic era. The Acheulean hand-axe, with its distinctive teardrop shape, is one of the most iconic artifacts from this period, and Coutier's ability to replicate it so accurately is a remarkable achievement in the field of archaeology.
