Kathy Diane Schick is an American-born archaeologist. She currently works as an anthropology professor in the Department of Biology and Geological Science at Indiana University, Bloomington. She is also the co-director, executive board members, and Secretary/Treasurer of the Stone Age Institute and CRAFT (Center for Research into the Anthropological Foundations of Technology) where she researches alongside her husband, Nicholas Toth, on the archaeological evidence relating to human origins and tools of survival. Through her extensive research and fieldwork, she outlines connections between technology and culture through the study of prehistoric human life and the development of tools crafted by humans in the Stone Age. Her fieldwork covers a wide range of activities from uncovering archaeological sites to conducting experiments across the globe, in laboratories in Africa, Europe, and Asia. In a series of experiments, Schick and Toth trained a bonobo to craft stone tools, using their observations to analyze the mechanics of early stone tool making and the role of evolution in relation to the development of technology such as stone tools. In addition to her research endeavors, she has authored and co-authored numerous articles in various publications. She has also co-founded exhibits showcasing her research including “From the Big Bang to the World Wide Web: The Origins of Everything”, located at Indiana University, Bloomington, and the Stone Age Institute, a repository of archaeological research relating human origins and technology through the development of early tools.
