flintknapping is the process of breaking rocks to make tools, a practice that has been in use for over two million years. This is a demonstration of possible knapping techniques used by some of the early americans. If you are interested in primitive skills, archaeology, or just have a fascination of the past you might find some of this video series interesting

sloan dalton pressure flaking series sloan dalton pressure flaking series
Posted by: Flintknappingtips

Video duration: 559 seconds

This series is roughly an hour and only covers the 4 major sets of pressure flaking on a finished, but stage 1 sloan dalton. Unless you are super into this kind of thing, you probably will want to only watch half of chapters 1 and 6. I kept it long though for the few people I know will really benefit from having the whole thing together.
