They used sharpened stone tools to cut up the animals and remove their skin. Then smaller scrapers were used to clean the fat and meat from them. They had to rub an ample amount of salt inside the skin to make it soft enough. Finally, they would have cut it and sewn the pieces together with needles made of animal bones.3. How did they make clothes?
Some of the necklace beads were made of animal bones but some were made of shells, which tell us that all the fields around here used to be part of a large shallow lake. Perhaps there was trade between early people or they traveled to the seaside on their journeys.
