Publisher Description:
This study of Neolithic tool assemblages from three sites in Syria addresses the question of transformations in lithic debitage from the 10th to 8th millennium BP. The changes witnessed are placed within the context of the economy and subsistence systems to reveal links between debitage development, especially blade variability, and hunting, husbandry and herding practices. Abb s argues that developments in blade debitages were geared towards the production of projectile points which has implications in terms of hunting and warfare. French text.
