Lithic Technology, 2008
AbstractAlthough considerable progress has been made by archaeologists and materials scientists toward the development of a method to quantitatively document use-wear on stone tool surfaces, experimentation and refinement of methods continue. The experimental program tests root mean square roughness (rms or Rq) of measured profiles for their ability to

Memoirs of the Society for American Archaeology, 1969
The chipped stone artifacts comprise a full tool kit. Ranging in size from the largest of the choppers to the tiniest of the flake scrapers, they conform to a characterization of generalized implements shaped with a minimum of modification. The broad and shallow flaking, unifacial percussion technique, use of flawed lithic material, re-working of ...

A Functional Analysis of Certain Chipped Stone Tools
American Antiquity, 1968AbstractA Late Prehistoric period buffalo kill and butchering site in northern Wyoming (Site 48 JO 312) produced a large number of stone tools. Flakes removed in sharpening stone tools provided much of the interpretation of the activity that occurred at the site and in addition gave a number of ideas concerning tool use and sharpening.

The decline and disappearance of chipped-stone tools:
2020The shift from stone to metal is considered as one of the main technological changes in the history of the mankind. In the Southern Levant, although the first metal objects appeared during the Chalcolithic, flint tools continued to be produced through the Bronze Age and the beginning of the Iron Age.

Tools for Thought: Some Comments on the Analysis of Puebloan Chipped Stone Assemblages
KIVA, 1982ABSTRACTUsing chipped stone assemblages from five Puebloan sites located in central Arizona, an analysis of both tools and waste materials was recently undertaken as part of the Arizona Public Service Cholla Project. Based on this study we suggest that much of the use of chipped stone was opportunistic and that few formal tool types exist. Viewing data

The Late Epipaleolithic period, also referred to as the Proto-Neolithic and dated back to the eleventh millennium BCE and early tenth millennium BCE, is closely linked with the communities located east of the Fertile Crescent that began to be settled during the Younger Dryas.
