Archaeological excavations in South Africa are yielding a great deal of evidence concerning the lives and habits of the ancestors of the Bushmen. Stone tools, man's basic implements in Africa for two or three million years, had been greatly refined by Later Stone Age times. Bone, wood, and other plant materials were also used in the manufacture of equipment. Small delicately-made stone artifacts were probably used to arm arrows. Some have actually been found fastened to one end of wooden sticks. These people used the bow and arrow, and fishing and fowling were part of the hunter's activities.
