[QUOTE="Physiksgeek, post: 1154445, member: 2854"] I don't know what you mean by "build fires to make arrowheads" but historic man would certainly "heat treat" flint before working it. Not sure about prehistoric man. It will change the color of the flint for sure....kinda like bringing the grain out in wood using a stain and my understanding is that it made it a little easier to work. Was it necessary....probably not. But what else did you have to do after the sun went down?....lol [/QUOTE]
