Tools

Like their neighboring villages across the Southwest, the tools at Mesa Verde were made from stone and bone for arrowheads, spear points, scrapers, pottery smoothers, ponders, drills and awls. These tools helped them catch food, prepare the food, turn skins into clothing, turn yucca into twine that could be sewn or woven, make jewelry, and prepare plants for medicine or for food. What tools do you use each day ?
