Neolithic Hand Tool | By the middle and late Neolithic there were slab lined houses, large bell-shaped storage pits, and wattle and daub constructions. In the early period, tools comprised mainly of backed microlithic bladelets and grinding stones. In later periods, bifacially worked foliates and arrow heads become more common, along with simple palettes and beads.
