Stone Age. The Stone Age was a time in history when early humans used tools and weapons made out of stone. It lasted from when the first stone tools were made by our ancestors about 3.4 million years ago, until the introduction of metal tools a few thousand years ago.
The Stone Age is divided by archaeologists (people who study relics) into three sections: Paleolithic (old stone), Mesolithic (middle stone) and Neolithic (new stone). Pottery was invented during the Neolithic Stone Age. Some people also believe the art of writing began in the Neolithic Stone Age.ome groups of people were still in the stone age into the 20th century. They also killed animals for food and clothing. The time after the Stone Age is the Bronze Age, named after the metal bronze. The Stone Age ended when people discovered the art of smelting (making metals).
