How do macroscopic thermal alterations relate to lithic artifact size and raw material type? A controlled heat-fracture experiment
Vial Excavation
Over the last decades, archaeology has been undergoing a revolution of sorts driven by advances in the archaeological sciences and the ability to extract data from sediments. These new methods work at the micro- or even molecular scale and thus require extremely high levels of precision for the context of the samples. While there have been significant advances in proveniencing techniques, by and large, basic excavation methods have hardly changed…
Fire Use in the Levantine Late Upper Paleolithic and Early Epipaleolithic
Using a count method of complete and proximal burned debitage ≥ 2.5 cm, Dibble and colleagues recorded a pattern of fire use by southwestern France Neandertals whereby fire use was more common in warmer rather than colder intervals of the late Pleistocene. A recent work by Abdolahzadeh and colleagues indicates that this pattern is also found in other areas of Europe. Here, we apply Dibble and colleagues’ burned lithics count method to assess fire…
To What Extent Are Similarities in Lithic Artifacts Due to Convergence
Heat exposed lithics
A Synthesis of the Dibble et al. Controlled Experiments into the Mechanics of Lithic Production
Archaeologists have explored a wide range of topics regarding archaeological stone tools and their connection to past human lifeways through experimentation. Controlled experimentation systematically quantifies the empirical relationships among different flaking variables under a controlled and reproducible setting. This approach offers a platform to generate and test hypotheses about the technological decisions of past knappers from the perspect…
Investigating variability in the frequency of fire use in the archaeological record of Late Pleistocene Europe
