Abstract:

It seems that only stone tools/hard tools existed in human civilization. No soft tools especially any twist- formed and flexible tools with some tying, hanging, fixing function had ever beendiscribed. Therefore, by the existing historical material objects and using the method of trace exploring analysis, from the aspect of pictogram record, pottery and hard tool it is proved the twist formed tools in paleolithic already exists and has achieved the evolution from the old twist formed tools to the new twist formed tools before the neolithic. It is concluded that old spinning tools appeared the same time as psleolithic and new twisting tools appeared 100 000 years ago. Human's tool history has not been a lonely one stone and there is more wisdom and complex, but it seems to be ignored and date wrong, that is twisting tool. At the same time, the new and old twist formed tools are defined and classified. As a kind of soft tools, their form and/or function traces on the Neolithic stones are discussed and explained. Fabric is not narrow as modern understanding of the scope. Twisting tool has an irreplaceable role for the evolution of the progressof human civilization and tools.
