Ancient engineering: inside the portable toolkits of ancient humans

In this episode, we sit down with Paleolithic archaeologist Dr. Ariel “Arik” Malinsky-Buller to reverse engineer the Stone Age. 

We explore how tiny fragments of obsidian and chert reveal the sophisticated toolmaking, long-distance travel, and shared knowledge that helped ancient hunter-gatherers survive the rugged Armenian Highlands tens of thousands of years ago.
