Full textThe thesis presented here updates the old data on the Acheulian of the Ahaggar, although these date are few in number and all dated 20th century. But it is obvious to mention them to borrow a new er of research on the subject. Despite the fruitful discoveries in many lower Palaeolithic sites in the Ahaggar, no scientific interest have been provided to many lithic collections interposed in several laboratories for scientific research. The new site “Téhéntawek” Acheulean discovered in the region of Idelès in the central Sahara of the Ahaggar and excavated with new pedagogical methods introduced in the present prehistory, has delivered in 2008 and 2010 an interesting lithic materials representative of the Acheulian industry. These approaches are considered renovative of the Saharan prehistory. The appropriate and adequate environmental of exploration, the adaptation of work to the rocky terrain of the Ahaggar region, have allowed us to reconsider the Saharan terrain. The study of lithic technology has provided a variety of tools and coexisted chopper, biface and cleaver, many raw chips, very consistent with the nucleus. Lithic raw materials used for shaping are local. The results of analyses on the sediments provided new data, including an opening on the paleoenvironment of the Ahaggar. Thus Téhéntawek site offered us with relevant information on the mastery of man in this currently Saharan environment

Full textThe period from 3500 to 2500 BC is marked by a profound transformation of societies. In the Provence area, there is a breakdown of the Middle Neolithic complex. Changes are reflected by lithic industries. We can observe technological changes, including raw material supply. New production methods are emerging . Large blades from specialized workshops begin to spread.Our study focuses on six settlement of the Provence area. These occupations give socio-economic information. Indeed, they have both stone industries produced on sites and blades imported from workshops. The interest is to take into account all the components of the lithic assemblages, to note what are the differences in consumption and management between the tools, first across the site and between sites.For this, the method of selection of tools was cumbersome, time-consuming and was based on observation with the naked eye and low magnification before microscopic observations. The determinations made from microscopic observations were compared with existing experimental repositories. Some comparisons have required the use of experimental ethnographic repositories. After the observation of certain archaeological tools, specific experiments were performed to specifically address some issues of our study to develop a new corpus poorly represented at the moment

Full textIt is necessary to examine quartz tools for understanding the Palaeolithic culture in Korea. It is difficult to identify the temporal change pattern of raw materials, assemblages and production techniques of stone tools found in the Palaeolithic sites in Korea ranging from the early to late Palaeolithic, because most stones tools uncovered from these sites are made of quartz. Therefore, this research raises two questions: Is it be possible that the use-wear analysis could reveal the functional change patterns of stone tools in accordance with production dates and environmental changes? How it can be detected the peculiar characteristics of the particular tools found in each site? The results of the use-wear analyses to each cultural layer show no clear temporal differences of raw materials, assemblages and uses of lithic tools. The sites where the excavated tools were mainly composed of quartz exhibited the successive patterns rather than the particular changes between cultural layers. The use-wear analysis suggest that most end-scrapers were used for processing hides. However, it could be observed use-wear pattern formed by processing woods and antlers in large-sized end-scrapers. Therefore, it can be inferred that the use of end-scrapers depended on the size of these tools; but it seems that small-sized end-scrapers produced in the late Palaeolithic were closely related to work hide. In order to seek more clear answers to this result, it will be needed to conduct analyses on many Palaeolithic sites dating to the transitional era distributed in different regions and on the sites yielding tools made of different raw materials
선사고고학은 기본적으로 선사인들의 생활과 환경에 대해 이해하기 위한 학문으로, 석기를 왜 만들고, 어떻게 사용했는가 ? 라는 기초적인 질문을 가진다. 다양한 연구 방법 가운데 석기에 남겨진 흔적을 연구하는‘쓴자국 분석’을 바탕으로 이에 대한 해답을 찾고자 한다. 한국에서는 시대와 지역이 다른 대다수의 구석기 유적에서 석영 석기가 높은 비율로 출토된다. 그렇기 때문에 한국의 구석기 문화에 대한 이해를 하기 위해서는 반드시 석영 석기에 대한 이해가 필수적이다. 이번 연구에서는 석영 석기에 대한 쓴자국 분석의 가능성을 확인하고 이를 통해 한국 구석기 유적에서 출토되는 석영석기의 기능과 시기와 환경에 따른 차이를 확인하고자 한다. 그리고 석영석기가 주를 이루는 한국의 구석기 유적에서는 구석기시대 전기에서 후기에 이르기까지 돌감, 석기의 구성, 제작기술 등에 있어 시기적인 변화와 특징을 확인하기 어렵기 때문에 쓴자국 분석을 통해 시기, 환경에 따른 석기의 기능에 있어서 차이 또는 특징들을 확인할 수 없는가? 그리고 유적에 따른 특정 도구의 사용에 차이 또는 특징들이 있는가? 라는 질문으로 시작한다. 그리고 석영석기에 대한 이해를 위해 다양한 실험을 통해 여러 작업재료에 따른 흔적들의 특징을 이해한다.먼저 여러 유물층이 확인되는 김포 풍곡리, 동탄 오산리와 청계리 구석기 유적의 석기들에 대해 분석 및 비교를 하였다. 그 결과 시간의 흐름에 따른 유물층에서는 사용되는 돌감, 석기구성과 사용 등에 있어 각 문화층에 따른 특징적인 차이를 명확하게 확인할 수 없었다. 쓴자국 분석을 통해 차이를 확인하고자 하였으나 석영 석기를 주로 사용하는 유적에서는 유적내 유물층 사이에서는 특별한 변화보다는 연속적인 양상을 볼 수 있었다. 도구와 유적의 기능과의 관계를 이해하기 위해 유적에서 출토되는 다양한 석기 가운데 지역과 시기에 상관없이 주로 출토되는 석기인 밀개에 대한 분석을 위해 7개 유적에서 출토된 밀개를 분석, 비교를 하였다. 그 결과 대부분의 밀개들이 가죽작업에 특징적으로 사용되었던 도구였을 것으로 짐작할 수 있다. 다만 크기가 큰 밀개의 경우 나무, 뿔 등 다양한 작업에 의해 형성된 흔적들을 볼 수 있었다. 즉, 밀개는 도구의 크기에 따라 다르게 사용이 이루어진 것으로 볼 수 있으나 후기 구석기 시대의 작은 크기의 밀개는 가죽 작업과 밀접한 관계가 있는 것으로 보인다. 일부 분석 유적들은 시기적으로는 후기에 해당하는 유적이지만, 후기 구석기로의 돌감선택, 도구의 소형화 등의 전환기적 특징이 확인되지 않았다. 또한 이번 분석 결과를 통해 석영 석기가 주로 출토되는 구석기 유적에서는 시간의 흐름에 따른 지속성을 확인 할 수 있었다. 이러한 결과가 분석이 이루어진 지역적인 특징인지, 석영이라는 돌감의 사용과 관련된 것인지에 대한 연구가 필요하며, 이를 바탕으로 유적의 지속적인 양상들에 대한 좀 더 명확한 해답을 찾기 위해서는 전환기에 해당하는 여러 지역의 다양한 구석기 유적들에 대한 분석과 석영이 아닌 다른 돌감이 주로 활용된 유적에 대한 연구와 비교가 더 필요하다

Full textIn a society as hierarchical as Mayan cities in Classic period (AD 250-950), the organization of production systems is at the heart of many debates on the political economy of these pre-Columbian societies. The difficulty of uncovering workshops during archaeological excavations has given rise to many questions about the nature and functioning of these cities. While we are aware of the diversity of production and techniques employed, information on the players in these systems remains incomplete.In the absence of metal artifact, lithic tools were central to the daily lives of pre-Columbian populations. The functional study of these tools is still a little-used approach in this cultural context. Combined with a detailed contextual study, however, this approach makes it possible to study the spatial distribution of activities, enabling us to identify production systems that took place in a Maya city, and thus gain a better understanding of its socio-economic and even political organization.We have carried out a functional analysis of a corpus of lithic tools from the Cancuén site (Petén department, Guatemala), where occupation was extremely short and contextual study of the analyzed tools was possible. This city was the site of several artisanal productions (e.g., jade, pyrite, lithic tools, ceramic furniture), for which an extremely marked spatial division of labor was previously observed. For our corpus, we selected a type of tool that is rare in the Maya area, yet found in large numbers at the site, with over 1 800 artifacts discovered: flint drills (n=138 analyzed). We also looked at the most common tool in Central America, with 12 000 objects found at Cancuén: obsidianblades (n = 1 024). To understand how these tools were involved in the city’s activities, we selected a wide range of contexts, from modest residences to royal palaces, integrating ritual contexts (burials and ritual deposits) and ceremonial contexts (aguadas), but also the structures involved in the craft productions previously identified. In this way, we were able to gain an overall view of the Cancuén epicenter as regards these tools.Thanks to a functional analysis coupled with an experimental approach – relying on ethnographic, epigraphic and ethnohistorical sources to construct our protocols – and although the number of typological categories of lithic tools analyzed was limited, the functional analysis revealed that they were involved in a wide variety of activities, including plant, animal and mineral materials. Tool use was opportunistic in some structures, while the study of tools deposited as offerings suggests their involvement in specialized, even ritualized activities. The spatial distribution of certain tasks,such as dental modification activities carried out near the palace, raises questions about the status of the activity and the craftsman. Thus, by combining functional results with spatial, technological and epigraphic studies, we can point the economic strategies implemented at Cancuén; this city grouped together several controlled production systems for goods and services, particularly prestige goods. The products were largely destined for export, which enabled Cancuén and its occupants to play an important role in the classical exchange networks

Full textOver the last decades, the Middle Stone Age (MSA) has been heralded as a key periodof the evolution of modern humans. Yet the nature of early innovations requires further clarification. The exploration of regional sequences and the extension of the research focus from purportedly precocious phases, Still Bay and Howiesons Poort, to the whole of the MSA are essential to expand our knowledge. The site of Sibudu Cave, South Africa, comprises a long and well-dated MSA sequence. Ongoing excavations by the University of Tübingen have yielded MIS 5 assemblages that contribute to the discussion about the driving mechanisms as well as appearance of technological novelties and the cultural variability in the MSA during this period.Following the chaîne opératoire approach, I carried out a technological analysis of the artefacts from layers C-A at Sibudu. The tool corpus stands out because of bifacial technology, but the largest part consists of a variety of unifacially pointed forms. The artisans developed a particular reduction strategy to obtain laminar products, involving cores with a lateral crest opposite the so-called lateral plane forming a triangular asymmetric volume for exploitation. Diagnostic features, including serrated pieces and the laminar reduction system, distinguish the C-A layers. Comparisons with other MIS 5 sites illustrate differences in tool types and organisation of the reduction sequence. However, past populations across different regions aimed at a similar technological goal: blades, thus organisingthemselves over distances with complex systems of connectedness. In conclusion, theC-A strata belong to a regional adaptation in KwaZulu-Natal attesting the rise oftechnological inventions and cultural developments within the MSA in MIS 5
In den letzten Jahrzehnten hat die Forschung mehr und mehr gezeigt, dass das MiddleStone Age (MSA) eine Schlüsselperiode der Entwicklung des modernen Menschen darstellt. Die Art der frühen Innovationen bedarf jedoch noch weiterer Klärung. DieErforschung regionaler stratigraphischer Abfolgen und die Ausweitung des Forschungsschwerpunktes von als früh entwickelt angesehenen Phasen, dem Still Bayund dem Howiesons Poort, auf das gesamte MSA sind für die Vertiefung unseres Wissens unerlässlich. Die Fundstelle Sibudu-Höhle, Südafrika, umfasst eine lange und gut datierte Sequenz des MSA. Aktuelle Ausgrabungen der Universität Tübingen lieferten Steinartefaktinventare aus MIS 5, die zur Diskussion über die Auslösemechanismen sowie das Auftreten technologischer Neuerungen und die kulturelle Variabilität im MSA während MIS 5 beitragen. Basierend auf dem Chaîne opératoire-Ansatz führte ich eine technologische Analyse der Artefakte aus den Schichten C-A von Sibudu durch. Der Werkzeugbestand zeichnet sich durch bifazielle Technologie aus, aber bei dem größten Teil handelt es sich um unifazielle Spitzenformen. Die Bewohner von Sibudu entwickelten zu dieser Zeit eine spezielle Abbaustrategie, um laminare Grundformen zu erhalten, bei welcher Kerne mit einer lateral angelegten Kernkante gegenüber der breiteren, planaren lateralen Fläche, die zusammen ein dreieckiges asymmetrisches Volumen für den Abbau lieferten, involviert waren. Diagnostische Merkmale, welche sogenannte ‚serrated pieces‘ und das laminare Abbausystem einschließen, charakterisieren die C-A-Schichten. Vergleiche mit anderen Fundstellen aus MIS 5 zeigen Unterschiede in Bezug auf die Werkzeugtypenund die Organisation der Abbausequenz. Die regional abgegrenzten Populationen zielen jedoch auf ein ähnliches technologisches Ziel, nämlich Klingen, ab, womit ein starker Hinweis dafür vorliegt, dass sich die Menschen über Entfernungen mitkomplexen Vernetzungssystemen organisierten. Zusammenfassend lässt sich sagen,dass die C-A-Schichten zu einer regionalen Anpassung in KwaZulu-Natal gehören, diedas Aufkommen technologischer Neuerungen und die kulturelle Evolution innerhalb des MSA in MIS 5 belegt

Full textThe economic organisation of Maya societies is still hotly debated because it is closely related to the différent definitions of the political organisations during the classic period (250-950 AD). This work attempts to shed light on the matter by analyzing the lithic material from two sites : Rio Bec and Calakmul,as well as by making a comparative study of the entire body of available data in the lowlands. Two different production contexts appear to have been in use, which coincide with the différences in spatial and political orgaénisation that have been observed for some time in the lowlands. Whereas the workshops in the north were found in smamm,modest residential units outsides the cities, the only concentrations of flint and obsidian waste in the south were to be found in special deposits, above royal tombs or under steles. These massive flake deposits appear to be workshop dumps, and are always composed of the same production process waste. Their close association with royal or elite contexts allows us to believe that they indicate a controlled production. There would thus be two different economic organisations : a decentralized one in the north, and another more controlled one in the south. Finally, obsidian waste is exclusively found in special deposits in the south, which indicates that some cities in that region somehow controlled the production and/ or the distribution of that material

Full textNobody having yet found reliable criterious to distinguish, on stone flakes edges, between retouch, use and accidental damages. To solve this problem, mainly a methodological one, we established a method based on the study and understanding of fracture and flaking mechanisms, showing the existence of physical relevant criterious. We carried out two types of experiments: a physical experiment in laboratory, with a "freefall machine" (free percussion with a ball), making it possible to get flakes one by one from flint and glass allowed us to check all possible parameters. - a classical retouch, use and accidental breakage experiment, the aim of which was to determine, from phy- sical data gathered from the previous experiment, wether retouch, use and ac- cidental breakage have identical or different mechanical origins. Our results show that it is possible, through this method, to establish reliable diffe- rentiation criterious. This work is finally illustrated by a functional study of neolithic flint tools, using the flake differentiation method the basic principle of which is yet to be systematically investigated

Full textThis work corresponds to a technological and functional study of the knapped lithic tool kit of the maritime hunter gatherers from Magallanes region between 6,000-3,500/3,000 BP. This period is characterised by several discontinuities, particularly in the lithic technology, that have led to the definition of two chrono-cultural unites. First, the so called “Englefield Culture” in the old period, characterised by an intensive exploitation of green obsidian. Then, the “Ponsonby Tradition”, in the middle period, which is defined by the absence of obsidian and the onset of big lanceolate bifacial points. The technological and functional analyses of the lithic tool kit of three archaeological sites, one associated to the old period and the other two related to the middle period, contributed to the evaluation of these technical discontinuities, which were seen in terms of human behaviour. The functional analysis required, in first place, of an analytic frame for applying the Traceology to the study context. This is because the canoeist groups exploited different lithic raw materials: obsidian, rhyolites, cinerites and metamorphic FGDR (Fine grain dark rocks). These raw materials respond in a different way to the use, therefore, their analysis implies methodological requirements and special interpretative possibilities. These particularities are evidenced in the description of the experimental use wear as well as in the results of the archaeological material analysis. In relation with the last ones, the analysis of the three sites yielded different results, and the data available for the contexts of the old period is more eloquent than the data of the middle period. This difference reveals a probable bias linked to the types of rocks used for the tool kit manufacture, and does not express necessarily human behaviour. Even though the bias presented above, the results of the functional analysis helped, in first place, to achieve a better understanding of the activities developed in each site (butchering, processing of skin, vegetable, bone and mineral materials). In second place, the data improved the definition of the lithic tool kit for every period, and allowed the discussion of some technical decisions in the manufacture chaine operatoires as well as the management behaviours of the tool kit. Finally, it was attempted to develop a diachronic comparison, discussing the changes and continuities in the composition and management of the lithic tool kit and stablishing the relationships with the manufacture and use chaine operatoires
Este trabajo corresponde a un estudio tecnológico y funcional del equipamiento lítico tallado de los cazadores recolectores marítimos de la región de Magallanes entre los 6.000-3500/3000 AP. Este periodo se caracteriza por varias discontinuidades, particularmente en la tecnología lítica, que han conducido a la definición de dos unidades crono-culturales. Primero, la llamada “Cultura Englefield” en el periodo antiguo, caracterizada por una explotación intensiva de la obsidiana verde. Luego, la “Tradición Ponsonby”, en el periodo medio, caracterizada por la ausencia de obsidiana y la aparición de grandes puntas bifaciales lanceoladas. El análisis tecnológico y funcional del equipamiento lítico de tres sitios arqueológicos, uno asociado al periodo antiguo y dos al periodo medio, permitió realizar aportes a la evaluación de estas discontinuidades técnicas, vistas en términos de comportamientos humanos. El análisis funcional requirió, en primer lugar, de un marco analítico para aplicar la traceología al contexto de estudio, ya que los grupos canoeros explotaron diferentes materias primas líticas: obsidianas, riolitas, cineritas y RGFO (Rocas de Grano Fino Oscuras) metamórficas. Estas materias primas reaccionan de forma diferente al uso, y su análisis implica requerimientos metodológicos y posibilidades interpretativas particulares. Esto se evidencia tanto en la descripción de huellas de uso experimentales como en los resultados del análisis del material arqueológico. Con respecto a estos últimos, el análisis de los tres sitios arrojó resultados de calidad diferente, y los datos disponibles para el sitio del periodo antiguo son más elocuentes que los de los sitios del periodo medio. Esto refleja probables sesgos asociados a los tipos de roca utilizados para la fabricación del equipamiento, y no necesariamente comportamientos humanos. A pesar de estos sesgos, los resultados del análisis funcional sirvieron en primer lugar para lograr una mejor comprensión de las actividades realizadas en cada sitio (carnicería, trabajo de piel, de materias vegetales, óseas y minerales…). En segundo lugar, los datos permitieron realizar una mejor definición del equipamiento lítico para cada periodo, así como discutir algunas elecciones técnicas en las cadenas operativas de fabricación y los comportamientos de gestión del instrumental lítico. Finalmente, se intentó realizar una comparación diacrónica, discutiendo los cambios y continuidades en la composición y gestión del equipamiento lítico y estableciendo relaciones con las cadenas operativas de fabricación y uso

Full textThis work aims to understand the organization of flint tools production during the eneolithic period (recent neolithic, ancient chalcolithic) onh bulgarian territory and northern greece. In order to perform it, the study begins with the definition of the methods of analysis used (technological study, chapter 1), then the analysis of raw material and sources available in the studied territory (chapter 2). The study is based on the lithic industries data from the north-eastern bulgarian settlements (chapter 3),which are after compared with those from settlements of the four others regions studied (chapter 4), and also on the analysis of the place and function of lithic pieces deposed in graves of north eastern necropolis (chapter 5). The outcome synthesis and conclusions (chapter 6) point out two types of production, one domestic, the other "professionalied", and apply to the definition of notions like specialization and professionalization. Professionalized production, which function is more cultural and social (relationship networks between groups) than economical, represents alos a prestige value for value for important person of rank who base their power on the controll of goods circulation and controll of relationship networks

Full textThe lithic industry from the Late Neolithic of Provence stays quite imperceptible if studied by a classic technique and typology approach. Its caracteristics, a dichotomy represented by standardized long blade productions coming from specialized workshops on one hand, and a technically simplified domestic production of wich standards aren't easy to find on the other, need a higher resolution improvement in the observations that are made. Those ones, then of a petrographical and traceological nature, allow a better understanding of the operating chains as well as to identify the tools they are destinated to produce. It then is possible to propose a more adapted typology and to show the existing standards. The comparison of the lithic industries of three complementary occupations illustrates the advantages of the methodology developped in this work and suggests, at last, a sketch of the caracteristics of the lithic industry from this period

Full textThe use of sawing was often considered as characteristic of stone axes manufacturing in the alpine zone during the Neolithic. In fact, it is neither attested everywhere, nor in any periods. The modalities of sawing also had to be different, because in certain regions we know the tools of the sawing, whereas the sawing is attested without that the tools of the sawing are preserved. During Neolithic times, sawing served as well for producing very long blades in rare rocks where tools in more common raw material. The technological and quantitative analysis (together with experiments) of stone artefacts discovered in the alpin lake settlements allows to approach the questions of the variability of technical choices, the mode of production organisation and its role in the social reproduction system

Particularly, all steps of the operational process (chaîne opératoire) were investigated from the extraction of raw materials to the use of the stone tools. These research objectives were addressed through an interdiscipinary approach, which combines the petrographic, morphological, and use-wear analysis of lithic tool implements based on both macroscopic and microscopic observations. The purpose of the use wear analysis was the identification of the different functions among these tools within their historical and archaeological context. Additionally, this study developed a precise terminology of manual movements and gestures associated with the use of these tools by combining ethnographical and experimental data with archaeological evidence

Full textArchaeological excavations at the DdEh-8 site carried out by the Ministère du Transport du Québec in 2013 as part of the Longue-Rive municipality highway bypass project in the Upper North Shore region produced an artifact collection associated with a Meadowood occupation (3000 to 2400 AA). More than 80% of the artifacts recovered are derived from the production of tools from a micaceous quartzite specific to this region. Lithologic variability of this regional micaceous quartzite remains poorly understood and its origin unknown. This thesis seeks to clarify the nature of this raw material which is ubiquitous in lithic assemblages from North Shore archaeological sites. We analyze the lithological variability of this material within the assemblage recovered at the DdEh-8 site and propose a more precise characterization based on thin-section petrography. This micaceous quartzite appears to be the result of mylonitization through shear zone deformation. Four main varieties are described and their use in tool production is documented using detailed typo-morphological and technological analyses. This thesis examines the production of lithic bifaces at DdEh-8 in depth; bifacial tools are a particularly significant part of the collection due to the systematic production of Meadowood-style “quaternary preforms” at the site. The classification of bifaces by stage of reduction was undertaken with a continuum approach correlating bifacial margin length with flake removal scar frequency. It appears that the reduction of bifaces at DdEh-8 is not strictly phased in clear technological steps although the objective of this reduction is indeed focused on the production of quaternary preforms. Mica quartzite is a highly favoured raw material in this bifacial industry for reasons that appear to us to be both practical and ideological; this material is both suitable and widely available in the region, while white quartzites appear to have been preferred in general elsewhere in the Meadowood Interaction Sphere

Full textWe present an evaluation of the Badegoulian of Auvergne after a detailed technological and typological approach of the lithic series from two sites, the Rond-du-Barry cave in Haute-Loire and the open-air site of La Contrée Viallet in the Allier. The characters of these series are compared with those from other sites located in the same area (Cottier, La Roche à Tavernat, Le Blot, La Goutte Roffat, La Grange Jobin and La Faye Godet). Numerous chaînes opératoires have been reconstructed according to the nature of the raw materials utilized. They demonstrate the technical adaptivity of the Badegoulian.In Velay, unit F2 of the Rond-du-Barr cave exhibits a diversity of Badegoulian cultural fascies. Ancient Badegoulian is characterized by the abundance of multiple tools, the absence of raclettes and a production of thick blades.The recent Badegoulian is marked by various technical traditions linked with thoose from the South of the Paris Basin and from the Mediterranean area.The open-air sites in the Bourbonnais (La Contrée Viallet and La Faye Godet) reveal the technical diversity of the Badegoulian of the Auvergne : flakes production from large flakes (Kombewa), autonomous bladelets production, débitage on flakes flanks and bladelet production on ventral surfaces (pièce de la Bertonne).All these data, when connected with those from the other sites of the Velay (La Roche à Tavernat, Le Blot, Cottier) and the Forez (La Goutte Roffat, la Grange Jobin) allow us to propose a model of structuration of the Badegoulian in the Auvergne, between lowlands and mountains

Full textAssemblages of grinding stone tools from minoan sites are studied using petrography, technological, morphological, residue and use wear analysis. Special attention is given to the complementarity of the methods applied. The petrographic study contributes to the interpretation of the choice of the raw material. This study has shown that sandstone. Chosen preferentially, in bronze age Crete, has in fact a number of advantages during shaping and use. Shaping techniques are closely related to the chronological context. The combination of macroscopic and microscopic observations gives an understanding of the wear process and trace formation. Residue analysis of fatty acids, phytoliths and starch grains contributes to functional interpretation of the tools

Full textOrdovician sandstone and schist indented cliff, punctuated with doleritic intercalations, Dhar, Nema is the southeast ending of Dhar's bow in South-Eastern Mauritania. ln a general context of Sahara' s aridification, its water system connected to powerful fossil groundwaters allowed human groups gathered by the climatic pejoration to find refuge there, from the 3rd to 1st millennium BC. This new environment showed itself favorable to the appearance of social and technical innovations leading to a local agricultural development. Typotechnological study of the lithic material showed distinctions in the operational sequence according to blank's type. Besides an abundant grinding material, two original tool types are emphasized from the toolkit : the big knapped axes and the disks. This big set of tools, including some artifacts were also found on Dhar Oualata, finds some resonance with that of the Malian region located between Nioro du Sahel and Southern plains Assaba in Mauritania

Full textDuring middle Holocene, between 8000 and 4000 BP, central and northern Brazil lithic industries were often described in terms of lacks more than tangible characteristics: lacks of “lesma” (unifacial shaping tool), lacks of ceramics. Specific technical features linked to that period are not easy to pinpoint because of a high level of artifacts diversity. Described as somewhat elaborate or simple, the specific nature of these industries highlights differences between this period and the previous one. To explain such a change in material culture, external factor hypothesis were proposed: huge environment modification due to climate change, new population that replaces another one. However, it is uneasy to evaluate break modalities regarding few studies on these period assemblages.Our work proposes to characterize the technical systems for the middle Holocene, and, by this way, to broach the technical break phenomenon using Itaparica techno-complex. Two middle Holocene lithic assemblages were study in a techno-functional way: la Toca Nova do Inharé, in Serra da Capivara (Piauí) and the Cajueiro site (BA-RC-19) northeastern of the central plateau (Bahia). Results reveal shared characteristics and significant variability. Organization of different functional parts of tools outlined around recurrent presence of abrupt sides, form a strong shared feature. Tool blanks have, however, high degree of variability according to different sites, explaining the lack of strictly defined tools. Our results compared to available literature data allow us to confirm that these features are specific to these middle Holocene industries and also to bear out the existence of a significant technical break with the Itaparica techno-complex

Full textBifaces industries from the middle pleistocene in northern and western europe are defined by a great diversity, and are considered as intricated phenomenous. Their variability is given by the knapping methods and by the intern composition of flake-tools and heavy-tools. Even if those industries are difficult to understand, they show numerous commun points with the industries of the tamise valley, with the african and near east sites. At the opposit, the sites from southern france, southern europe and central europe are differents from ours, because they don't have many bifaces and the heavy-tools dominate the floke-tools. There is no fixed pattern about the evolution or devloppement between tools and the knapping methods during this period. The interpretation of this variability is still mysterious, bacause a lot of informations can be retained (environment), specialized areas, way of life, choice of the knapper, traditions. . . )

Full textThis thesis addresses the question of the Neolithisation of the Northwest of France, throught the analysis of the industries based on Jurassic flint from the Neolithic sequence in Normandy. Subject of several environmental and cultural influences, this region is essential for understanding the dynamics and socio-economic behaviors in the Neolithisation process. Normandy is characterized by a geological environment with excellent flint sources used throughout Prehistory, used here as markers of these behaviors and their evolution over the long term. The aim is to characterize the productions related to these sources and their distribution, the chronological and cultural sequence in which they operate, taking into account all the processes of chaîne opératoire, from flints procurement to the abandonment contexts. Restore a coherent vision of the process involves a protocol that melts typo-morphological, functional and technological approaches, to meet the structural link between the economies of raw materials, production and tools management. The study on the long-term use of a particular type of resource gives a specific point of view about Neolithisation of the Northwest of France. Continuities and ruptures, permanence or extinction of chaînes opératoires, technical processes and distribution channels restore a piece of technical evolution and cultural significance of the Neolithic societies

Full textIn the western Mediterranean, obsidian is a demanded raw-material since the earliest phases of the Neolithic due to its good knappability. Its main sources are located in the tyrrhenian islands (Sardinia, Pantelleria, Lipari, and Palmarola); obsidian goods have been circulating in the region and they are considered a significant cultural marker of different forms of exchange and interaction networks between prehistoric groups. For what concerns Sardinia, nowadays four different types of both primary and secondary obsidian deposits from Monte Arci are known. It is therefore possible to better understand the exploitation system of this raw-material in Sardinia and in the north-tyrrhenian sector of the western Mediterranean, which roughly corresponds to its main area of diffusion. Due to its physical characteristics, obsidian is extremely suitable for knapping and it bears a detailed record of the knapping stigmata. b The heart of this thesis consists of the analysis of an obsidian reference collection made by different knappers with different techniques(direct, indirect percussion, and pressure). As result, it has been possible to identify the morphometric characters and the technical stigmata associated with each one of the considered techniques. This represents an essential information in order to recognize the different techniques of obsidian débitage used in Prehistory, especially because resulting blanks are often characterize by ambiguous traits, compatible with different techniques. In addition, this study has allowed to understand the differences between obsidian and chert knapping, thanks to the integration of the data available from literature. On these basis, a first technological analysis of an archaeological obsidian collection from Sardinia has been carried out, choosing a Neolithic site (Coddu is Abionis, Terralba, Or) characterized by an abundant assemblage and a diversity of chaînes opératoires and techniques
