Abstract:

In this paper attention is drawn to some aspects of the flint economy of the Final Palaeolithic Masovian complex, mainly on the basis of stone materials from the Rydno IV/5 7 site. From the results of refitting analysis, a model of flint processing with two types of exploitation is proposed: occasional, and highly advanced, specified in time and space. It was stated that blades intended for "export" are linked with the second type, and were obtained at separate areas described as blade workshops. The extent of that "export" was relatively low, only ca. 28 of specimens obtained at blade workshops were transported out of the site. Finally, the purpose of production of blanks, and the problem of exchange in communities of the Masovian complex are considered
