Carlo Gori - The Flintknapper
I am one of the very few “FLINTKNAPPERS” in Italy, I build knives, arrowheads and other tools knapping the flint d other stuff in the same way like our prehistoric ancestors. This job has several steps: the research of workable stones, the skill to knapp, and the knowledge of Prehistory.
In a technological Era like the one in which we are living, someone will be surprised to find a person knapping flints and obsidians, but all is in our genetic background even if it may be hid in a remote area of our brain. Don’t forget our origins.
