My uncle spent 30 years picking up rocks in the East African Rift and always said the same thing: the fancy tools get all the attention, but the worn down ones tell you who was actually doing the work. A 1.8 million year old hand axe sounds impressive until you realize somebody had to make the boring scraper first.
