Today's Webtip: Primate Archaeology

Apparently a few primate groups have been living in the Stone Age

I ran into a story this morning that really tickled my fancy. An article written in August that explains that some primates have been using stone tools.

Now, that was something I knew. What I didn't know is that many have been doing it for a Very Long Time, that they are at about the same stage as humans were when we first started bashing things with rocks, and that there is a job dedicated to studying it.

Primate Archaeolgy.

How cool is that?

Anyway, there isn't a whole lot more I can tell you without spoiling the article, so maybe you should just go check it out.
