Some useful terminology and links
Palaeolithic
A period in prehistory distinguished by the original development of stone tools that covers c. 99% of the period of human technological prehistory.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paleolithic
Artefact typology
The result of the classification of things according to their physical characteristics. The products of the classification (in other words, the classes) are also called types. Most archaeological typologies organize portable artefacts into types, but typologies of larger structures, including buildings, field monuments, fortifications or roads, are equally possible. A typology helps to manage a large mass of archaeological data.

Stone tool technology
[A.K.A. lithic technology] Includes a broad array of techniques used to produce usable tools from various types of stone.
