Introduction
The proceedings of the B23 Session held during the XVII UISPP/IUPPS conference (1-7 September 2014, Burgos, Spain) are published in this issue of the Journal of Lithic Studies. The title of the session, "Beyond the reduction sequence: new insights in lithic technology", aimed to increase awareness about current methods in studies on stone assemblages
Quartzite pebble technology in the final Middle Pleistocene of the Ribeira da Ponte da Pedra site (High Ribatejo, Central Portugal)
The lithic assemblage of Ribeira da Ponte da Pedra site (OIS8-9) was produced, almost exclusively, through the exploitation of good quality quartzite fluvial pebbles with a regular morphology. Quartzite fluvial pebbles are the most common raw material found in the Middle Pleistocene occupation sites in Portugal. Such feature results from the easy availability of these pebbles in the valleys where the great majority of the archaeological sites wit…
Use wear analysis of quartzite lithic implements from the Middle Palaeolithic site of Lagoa do Bando (Central Portugal)
The Middle Palaeolithic site of Lagoa do Bando is an open air site in a lacustrian context located at 570 m a.s.l. in the municipality of Mação in the center of Portugal. The site was discovered in 2011, during an emergency excavation, and resulted on the recovery of a Middle Palaeolithic lithic assemblage mainly composed of fine grained quartzite implements of expedient, discoid and Levallois technology. Use wear analysis was conducted on 41 art…
Technology and Experimentation in Archaeology
Experimental Archaeology as an hypothesis contrast method, focusing on technological studies, is not new in archaeological research procedures. Since the early 1970s, as a consequence of the application of châine-operatoire/reduction sequence concepts within the framework of Palaeoethnological investigation, or within the actualistics studies highly developed in the framework of Processual Archaeology, the experimentation and utilization of artef…
Interpretation of lithic remains in fluvial terrace contexts
Interpretation of lithic remains in fluvial terrace contexts : an example from Central Portugal. Archaeological remains, mainly lithic artefacts, are recovered in quaternary fluvial deposits all around the world. Fluvial systems are dynamic and diversified ; the same goes for their deposits, thus differentially affecting the implements found. The deposits, coexisting at the same time, are correlated to different lithologies, from the coarsest of …
The earliest Pleistocene archaeological sites in western Iberia
Educação, criatividade e cidadania no Museu de Arte Pré-Histórica de Mação
No Museu de Arte Pré-Histórica do Sagrado do Vale do Tejo, a educação (desde o ensino básico ao universitário) e a didática (para todos os tipos de público) são prioridades operacionais essenciais, cujo programa e respectivas atividades se inserem numa estratégia de combate à desertificação e exclusão social, bem como na transmissão de idéias de identificação com o patrimônio cultural e ambiental, sua conservação e proteção. O conceito fundamenta…
