An interesting aspect of late paleolithic and neolithic cultures is the fact that the same tools were being made in the same way all over Eurasia in a given time period.  Also interesting that the same shapes seem to show up in the Americas a couple of thousand years later.  One might be tempted to suppose that there is a cultural "gene" of some sort that produces these things.
