The eponymous locality of the Middle Palaeolithic industry was first excavated 1913. As a result of nine years investigations, 104 lithic artefacts, made predominantly of radiolarite were collected from the exceptionally thick yellowish red sediment. According to our reconstructions, on the top of the layer s. str. Szeletian artefacts and osseous tools, in the lowermost level Micoquian-type stone tools were found. Unfortunately, the majority of the artefacts, including the retouched Levallois blanks, “raclettes”, leaf-shaped implements and some antler tools cannot be linked to well-defined levels. Instead of the connections of the find material with the industries found in southern Germany or on the Balkans, we suggest draw attention to the similarities with the assemblage of layer G1 of the Vindija cave (Croatia)
