Some ground stone tools are incidental, caused by use with other tools: Mano s, for example, are hand stones used in conjunction with Metate s and other Grinding Slab s (querns), and develop their ground surfaces through wear. Other ground stone tools include Adze s, Celt s, and Axe s, which are manufactured using a labor-intensive, time-consuming method of repeated grinding against a harder stone or with sand, often using water as a Lubricant . These tools are often made using durable finer-grained materials rather than coarse materials. |
