I was just wondering if there is any info about the kind of tools used to create megaliths. Are there any distinct designs for stoneworking which are recognisable as chisels or gouges etc or were axes used for wood / stone / flesh without distinction ?
Has there been a prehistoric 'mason' or 'stonehengineer' burial discovered in the Uk - i.e an inhumation with the tools of his craft of a person likely to have been a builder?
There would obviously be a superabundance of natural mallets and hammers in the form of stone, but i t just occured to me that I cant recall seeing anything identified as an implement for working stone.
