The Aurignacians were very intelligent tool makers considering their time period.They made many types of tools such as: burins, scrapers, engraving tools, bladeds, points, spears, and knifes. their tool serrated (with jagged edges) and made of bone, antler, or ivory. Aurignacians also made tools by striking pieces off raw flint cores, a technique that can be duplicated by refitting, in effect running the process backwards.
