Abstract:

A study of the chipped and ground stone tools from the Neolithic levels of Arene Candide was conducted by the authors. The chipped stone tools were examined for technological and typological information by Starnini and for microwear traces by Voytek. The ground stone tools were also studied in terms of manufacturing techniques and function by both authors. All materials were examined as to potential source of raw materials. The paper outlines the main findings of the study, including the differences among the assemblages associated with three archaeological cultures, the Early Neolithic Impressed Ware Culture, the Middle Neolithic Square Mouth Pottery Culture, and the Late Neolithic Chassey Culture
