No. 1 and 5 Denticulates
The tools with a dentate margin had a use similar to that of our hacksaw knives.
No. 2 Notches
Noched tools probably needed to decorticate and give shape to wooden pieces; they were probably used, for example, to create spears.
No. 3 Scraper
The scrapers are tools on flakes or blade (flakes longer than large) with one or more retouched edges, used to scratch and work skins and wood. The scrapers were used throughout the Prehistory but they are particularly characteristic of the Middle Paleolithic (200,000 - 35,000 years ago).
No. 4 Burin
Burins are tools characterized by a sturdy and tight transverse cut like that of a chisel, they had the function to engrave wood, bone and horn.
No. 6 Perforator
The perforators and the becs (which had a smaller end) were used to drill holes in materials such as wood, bone and skin.
No. 7 and 8 Points
The points formed the sharp end of objects planned to penetrate, such as spears.
