"Paleo hunters made tools for everyday tasks such as hunting and defense. First, they went to a nearby chert quarry, used by members of their band. Using a hammerstone, they broke pieces of stone from the outcrop and chipped them into rough symmetrical blades, called preforms. The preform was then chipped, or knapped in several stages to form a thinner well-shaped point. Deer antler tools were used to create a sharp, fine edge on the stone points by using pressure to remove smaller flakes. Some spear points were bound to an ivory foreshaft that was then attached to a socketed wooden spear shaft. Upon entering the prey, the spear could be pulled free, leaving the foreshaft and point embedded in the animal. " ~ Display at the Florida Museum of Natural History.

PALEO TIMELINE: 12,000 B.P. to 9,500 B.P. (Before present) - EARLY PALEO PERIOD: 12,000-10,000 BP - Simpson point on mammoth ivory foreshaft (circa 11,500 BP) - First evidence of people on the Florida peninsula, Paleoindians live a semi-nomadic life, hunt big game like mastadon, climate was drier than today, and sea level is more than 100 feet lower than today. - Bison antiguns skull with embedded spearpoint, Wacissa River (circa 11,000 BP).
LATE PALEO PERIOD: 10,000 to 9500 BP - stone bola weight (circa 10,000 BP) had most big game animals extinct, wetter climate prevails, sea level rises gradually, several new styles of stone points appear, like the side notched bolan point. " ~ Display in the Florida Museum of Natural History.

A lot of years ago, haha, when I was a student at Friedrich-Schiller-University, we liked to hike to Cospeda, having sausages and beer in this pub.
Napoleon had slept in this house, and the owner of the pub looked like Napoleon himself. If you had seen him, you would have learned to believe in a dejavu.

Woods grading scrapers are designed to handle more material in fewer passes.
• Heavy-duty mast plate creates more down force for smoother surface and virtually eliminates washboard effect
• Adjustable skid shoes and scarifiers increase performance
• Tall side frames hold more material for leveling
• Approachable leading edges and structural reinforcements keep scraper stronger for longer
• Reversible/replaceable high-carbon cutting edges
The group says the popularity of scraper bikes in Oakland has grown, but that they were the originators of the concept. "Oakland has been taken over by scraper bikes," says Stevens. Photo by Jacob Fenston.
The engineering company for this was was based in Melton Mowbray. It was T. Cowman & Sons, and I believe that there is a Martin Cowman, civil and marine engineering contractors. Martin Cowman was established in 1946 (probably about when this photo was taken), but whether related to T Cowman I don't know. I think that T Cowman had something to do with electricity installation.
