[[File:Ötzi the Iceman - Dagger 2.png|thumb|upright=1.6|left| Stone dagger of [[Ötzi|Ötzi the Iceman]] who lived during the [[Copper Age]]. The blade is made of [[chert]] containing radiolarians, calcispheres, calpionellids and a few sponge spicules. The presence of [[calpionellids]], which are extinct, was used to date this dagger.<ref>{{cite journal | last1 = Wierer | first1 = U. | last2 = Arrighi | first2 = S. | last3 = Bertola | first3 = S. | last4 = Kaufmann | first4 = G. | last5 = Baumgarten | first5 = B. | last6 = Pedrotti | first6 = A. | last7 = Pernter | first7 = P. | last8 = Pelegrin | first8 = J. | year = 2018 | title = The Iceman's lithic toolkit: Raw material, technology, typology and use | journal = PLOS ONE | volume = 13 | issue = 6| page = e0198292 | doi = 10.1371/journal.pone.0198292 | pmid = 29924811 | pmc = 6010222 | bibcode = 2018PLoSO..1398292W | doi-access = free }}</ref>]]
