About the Book:This book is a rich, immersive guide to reconnecting with the Stone Age through hands-on learning of ancient skills. Developed over twenty years, Watts’s book invites readers to explore humanity's shared heritage by mastering over 65 techniques and tools used by our ancestors. The book provides detailed instructions for crafting essential objects like stone axes, bone utensils, reed shelters, and watercraft, all made from natural materials like plant fibers, bones, and shells. Each chapter guides readers through three key periods of human evolution—Lower Paleolithic, Middle Paleolithic, and Mesolithic—revealing how humans adapted to survive and innovate. As president of the Society of Primitive Technology and director of the Aboriginal Studies Program at the Schiele Museum, Watts brings authority and passion to this work, grounded in years of research, teaching, and practice. The book doesn’t just teach skills; it makes a compelling case for connecting with our distant past as a way of enriching the present. Through *Practicing Primitive*, Watts provides a practical and philosophical bridge to the wisdom, creativity, and resilience of our ancestors, inspiring modern readers to preserve and pass on this valuable heritage.
