The study of early stone technology is crucial to our understanding of human evolution worldwide, providing insight into the capabilities of our earliest ancestors. Current models focus on the evidence from Africa and Europe, potentially marginalising the importance of eastern Asia in the global development of early human stone technology. This impacts how nations and communities in our region interpret themselves to the world and reduces the impetus of innovative research on this subject. The proposal aims to establish detailed comparisons between Southeast Asian and 'Western' technologies, providing a suitable framework through which current preconceptions can be more rigorously assessed.

早期石器技术的研究对于我们了解全世界人类的进化至关重要，可以让我们深入了解我们最早祖先的能力。 目前的模型集中在非洲和欧洲的证据上，可能会忽视东亚在早期人类石器技术全球发展中的重要性。 这影响到我们区域的国家和社区如何向世界解释自己，并减少了对这一问题进行创新研究的动力。 该提案旨在建立东南亚和“西方”技术之间的详细比较，提供一个合适的框架，通过该框架可以更严格地评估当前的偏见。
