Biometric variables predict stone tool functional performance more effectively than tool‐form attributes: a case study in handaxe loading capabilities.

Both the form of a stone tool and the anatomy of the individual using it have potential to influence its cutting performance. To date, however, the selective pressures acting on stone‐tool form and hominin biometric/biomechanical attributes have been investigated in isolation and their relative infl...
