The tip of the spear 500,000 years ago in southern Africa (https://t.co/9wG79f4tuX), primitive Homo sapiens first bound stone blades to wooden spears, creating the spearpoint. Spearpoints were revolutionary as weaponry, and as the first “composite tools” – combining components.

Early humans developed hafted hunting technology by attaching stone points to spears around 500,000 years ago, as evidenced by fracture patterns and impact modifications at the Kathu Pan 1 site in South Africa.
This episode explores the development of early humans' hafted hunting tools around 500,000 years ago and discusses whether artificial intelligence can possess the ability to understand mental states, traditionally…
