Important Innovations
An Important innovation from the Homo habilis specie is that they were the first people to make tools with stone and so they were called 'handyman'. They made stone tools by breaking stones apart and creating shapes for certain tools. The size of the tools varied from a size of a tennis ball to the size of a walnut. The tools they made were used for hunting animals, digging soil to find things they could eat, for preparing food for them to eat and lots of other uses. The Homo habilis had bigger brains than the older hominim species so they were able to make tools out of stone.
