From edge to mark. Investigating the relationship between cut marks and lithic raw materials
Understanding the relationship between animal processing practices and stone tool use is essential for interpreting Paleolithic lifeways. These activities leave behind two key forms of archaeological evidence: butchery marks (“cut marks”) and lithic tools. While both faunal and lithic remains are critical to understanding past behaviors, they are rarely studied in an integrated framework. In particular, the characterization of cut marks produced …
Intra-site Organization of the Repeated Neanderthal Occupation of Unit A9, Grotta di Fumane (Pre-Alps, Italy)
The repeated use of spaces has been extensively studied for many years in Paleolithic archaeology through various disciplines and techniques. Caves and rockshelters are typically the most suitable contexts for these studies due to their characteristics. However, certain key elements make deciphering these reoccupations possible, which would otherwise be difficult, if not impossible. Among these elements, the density of archaeological materials an…
Shell artefacts in Cape York Peninsula
As Australia’s largest peninsula, Cape York Peninsula in Queensland presents abundant opportunities to understand the complex relationship between people and coastal environments. Beyond merely being food refuse, shells demonstrate considerable cultural significance as both practical tools and symbolic objects. Yet studies of shell artefacts across Cape York Peninsula have been limited. The Agayrr Bamangay Milbi (ABM) Project, a Traditional Owner…
Bone Refits and Implications for the Reconstruction of a Late Middle Palaeolithic Context
The role of individual decision-making in the manufacturing of bone retouchers
Bone retouchers, while often underrated, stand out as widespread tools throughout the Palaeolithic, typically linked to breaking bones for marrow extraction. Although bone retouchers are commonly considered a by-product of butchering activities, the possibility of intentional manufacturing has been rarely considered but should not be dismissed. In our experimental protocol, we explore decision-making processes involved in manufacturing bone retou…
Taking a closer look
Tales of Multifunctionality
Boomerangs are among the most recognisable elements of Australian Aboriginal technology. In the popular mindset, the prevailing image of these wooden artefacts is that of thrown implements that return to the thrower, principally used for hunting animals. However, boomerangs have a deep multipurpose role in Indigenous societies, with just a few examples of their known functions, including fighting, digging, and making music ( i.e ., “clap sticks”)…
Flexibility within Quina lithic production systems and tool-use in Northern Italy
The Quina Mousterian is one of the well-defined Middle Paleolithic techno-complexes. Despite the pivotal research carried out in south-western France, the presence of this techno-complex across the rest of Europe is still poorly documented. Here we apply a techno-functional approach, combining technological and use-wear analyses, for reconstructing lithic core-reduction, tool-reduction, and tool use at De Nadale Cave, a single-layered Mousterian …

Bone retouchers from the Mousterian Quina site of De Nadale Cave (Berici Hills, north-eastern Italy)
Teste di mazza”
We present the results of a study on the experimental reproduction of a specific type of macro-lithic tool, traditionally called “teste di mazza”, distinctive to the Nuragic phase in Sardinia (17th-9th century BC). We analyzed a sample collected in the area of northern Sinis – in the western-central part of the island – in order to reconstruct the sequence of the technological actions required to produce these tools. At this point, two experiment…
