About the Event

At the 30th the EAA Annual Meeting in Rome for an exhilarating presentation from the MetaTool project takes place. Delve into the captivating world of stone tool production as we unveil our groundbreaking multi-disciplinary ontology. Developed to revolutionize archaeology, this ontology rethinks traditional assumptions and reframes archaeological evidence, providing fresh insights into ancient tool-making practices.

Crafted as part of the MetaTool project, our ontology transcends disciplinary boundaries by layering archaeological concepts with computational neuroscience models and robotics simulations. By placing raw materials at the center of our analysis and imbuing them with agency, we uncover the functional properties, adaptive advantages, and cultural considerations driving tool invention.

Through computational simulations and ontology analysis, we aim to validate insights and deepen our understanding of human cognition and technological evolution. It's an unique opportunity to be part of our journey to unlock the secrets of our ancient ancestors' ingenuity and innovation. Experience an enlightening exploration into the past and the future of archaeological research.
