Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Boucher de Perthes was a French archaeologist who is best known for his discovery of "lightning stones," which were actually prehistoric tools and artifacts made by early humans. This discovery challenged the prevailing belief at the time that humans had not existed during the same time period as extinct animals like mammoths and woolly rhinoceroses. Boucher de Perthes' work helped to establish the idea of prehistoric human existence and was a significant contribution to the study of archaeology.
