Azilian pebbles

Azilian pebbles are just little rocks that people found a really long time ago. They come from a place in Europe called the Azilian culture - kind of like a big group of friends who all live together and do things the same way.

Now, these little rocks might not seem like a big deal to us, but back when the Azilian people were around they were super important. You see, the Azilian people used these pebbles to make all sorts of things like knives, scrapers, and even decorations!

To make these tools and decorations, the Azilian people had to be really good at shaping the pebbles. They used other rocks to hit the pebble and slowly change its shape until it was just right. It was kind of like playing with clay or Play-Doh, but instead of using your hands, the Azilian people used other rocks.

These pebbles can tell us a lot about the Azilian people and how they lived. People still find Azilian pebbles today, thousands of years later, and they help us learn more about what life was like when the Azilian people were around.
