Stage and continuum approaches in prehistoric biface production: A North American perspective. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2017 North American lithic analysis often assigns biface preforms to discrete, successive stages defined in Callahan's influential study. Yet recent research questions the stage concept, emphasizing instead a continuous view of the reduction process.

Identifying Major Transitions in the Evolution of Lithic Cutting Edge Production Rates. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2016 The notion that the evolution of core reduction strategies involved increasing efficiency in cutting edge production is prevalent in narratives of hominin technological evolution. Yet a number of studies comparing two different knapping technologies have
