Retouched Burin-Cores in the Earliest Upper Palaeolithic of Kostenki 17, Cultural Layer II
Multifaceted burins on truncation represent a key category within the lithic assemblage of II cultural layer of Kostenki 17 — a unique industry of the initial stage of the Upper Palaeolithic. Despite their fundamental significance, these artefacts have not previously been the subject of a dedicated study. This article presents, for the first time, the results of a comprehensive technological, typological and use-wear analysis of burins on truncat…
The Earliest Evidence of the Manufacturing of Solutions and Viscoplastic Mixtures From Paint Pigments on the Russian Plain in the Middle Paleolithic
The article presents the results of studying a series of small individual pigment particles discovered in the cultural layer of the Chelyuskinets II site, which is part of the Lower Volga Middle Paleolithic group together with the Eurasian reference site Sukhaya Mechetka and the Zaikino Pepelishche site. Preliminary results of OSL dating indicate the age of the cultural layer in the range of 150–165 thousand years BP (mid-MIS 6). The pigments of …

Identification of Hafting Traces on Palaeolithic Stone Tools
The main objective of this paper is to refine the morphological and traceological criteria for identifying hafting traces on the Palaeolithic stone artifacts. After reviewing relevant publications, the authors proceed to the description of their own experiments aimed at the identification of different kinds of macro- and microwear tracers that formed as a result of hafting. The characteristics of these traces depended on the haft material, durati…
