A stone ax
At first they roasted the animal in its skin, but now they knew a better way.
They skinned the animal and cut out the ribs; then they buried them in the hot ashes.
They covered the ashes with hot coals.
They cut slices of meat with their stone knives and put them on roasting sticks.
Then they held these sticks over the hot coals just as we sometimes do to-day.
