介绍（中）	该工具是用一种称为Levallois核心制备的特殊技术制成的，该技术在旧石器时代中期被广泛使用。与旧石器时代晚期相比，旧石器时代中期出现了更复杂的石器技术，工具类型也更加多变。这种变化与人类行为的日益复杂有关 - 例如专门的狩猎，烟火技术和符号的使用 - 最终导致解剖学和行为上的现代人类。Levallois点是更复杂的石器技术的主要例子，它是通过以特定方式从核心中去除薄片制成的，例如围绕边缘向心，因此最后分离的薄片具有预定的尖头形状。有时，以这种方式生产的薄片随后被用作工具，而无需对形状或边缘进行任何额外的修改，而该工具就是一个例子。它的边缘只有不规则的疤痕，这可能是使用的结果。
介绍（英）	This tool was made with a special technique called Levallois core preparation that was widely used during the Middle Paleolithic Period. The Middle Paleolithic saw the rise of more complex stone tool technologies and more variability in tool types compared to the Lower Paleolithic. This change is associated with the increasing complexity of Hominin behavior —such as specialized hunting, pyrotechnology, and the use of symbols— eventually resulting in anatomically and behaviorally modern humans. Levallois points, a primary example of the more complex stone tool technology, were made by removing flakes from a core in a specific way, such as centripetally around an edge, so that the last flakes detached had a predetermined pointed shape. Sometimes, the flakes produced this way were then used as tools without any additional modification of the shape or edges, and this tool is an example of such. It has only irregular scars along the edges which are likely the result of use.
