The Middle Paleolithic is represented by five Levantine Mousterian sites found in the Judayid Basin and the Jebel Qalkha study areas. Only two of the sites, Tor Sabiha and Tor Faraj, yielded in situ materials and these became the focus of research for the period (Figure 4.1).

Middle Paleolithic Spear Point Technology
1997It is generally acknowledged that the early Upper Paleolithic in western Eurasia (ca. 25,000–35,000 B.P) witnesses the appearance of a wide range of projectile weapons. Many of the stone, bone, and antler armatures of these weapons exhibit functional and stylistic variation similar to that seen among the hunting weapons of recent human groups (Knecht ...

The East Asian Middle Paleolithic Reexamined
2009The criteria to define the Middle Paleolithic in East Asia have traditionally been presence/absence of archaic Homo sapiens fossils, biostratigraphy, lithostratigraphy, the Middle-Late Pleistocene transition, and lithic technology. In this paper, we examine the use of the Middle-Late Pleistocene shift as a valid criterion for characterizing the Middle ...
