Subjectivity in Stone Age art works such as figure stones, engravings, sculptures, effigies and curated manuports. See how images and icons have been realized in portable rock media since the dawn of humanity. Here, archaeologists and art historians are becoming aware of these forsaken artifacts. “And this our life, exempt from public haunt, finds tongues in trees, books in the running brooks, sermons in stones, and good in every thing." -in W. Shakespeare, As You Like It, 1599.

Flint human head effigy from Texas
Human head silhouette in re-touch work on a flint flake.
David Boies find, Westlake, Texas
Well-made artifact. I showed it to my 7 and 8 year old granddaughters and they could immediately identify the eyes, eye-lashes, nose, and mouth. Man-made but not sure of time period.
