Prehistoric Living
Hey everyone. I'm a flintknapper/archaeologist from Hamilton, Ontario, Canada. Welcome to my channel! For now I'm just posting knapping videos, but in the long run I aim to start using the tools I make to do all sorts of stuff, using only prehistoric materials and technologies.
I started knapping 2012, as an undergrad in archaeology. Over the years I have become specialized in the study of chipped stone tools, and my knapping has assisted in that endeavour in more ways than I can count. As I get more into the experimental archaeology side of things, I will be posting videos on replicating certain technologies and industries, and using these products on other materials to reconstruct activities in the past. This will be a very long term process, but I look forward to getting more videos on here and becoming more comfortable in front of the camera for these big future projects. Stay tuned, and thanks for watching!
