Quandong stones: A specialised Au…n nut-cracking tool.

This archaeological study identified specialized stone tools (anvils) used by Aboriginal Australians specifically for cracking quandong nuts, analyzing 1,327 ground stone implements across 12 locations in the Murray Darling Basin. While quandong kernels have been traditionally used in skin care preparations, this research is about the *tools* used to process the nuts—not about the ingredient's skin benefits themselves.
