Lithic technology and spatial structures of the camp as seen in lithic refittings from Hamburgian site at Mirkowice
Keywords:
lithic technology, Late Palaeolithic, refitting analysis, spatial organization, social structureAbstract
Article present results of analysis of lithics from Late Palaeolithic Hamburgian site Mirkowice 33 located in the eastern part of Greater Poland. Analysis was conduct with the use of refitting method. Results show technological differences in lithic production and spatial structuring of the camp. It also presents the relations between particular zones of the camp and groups of products manufactured by the knappers with different lithic processing skills. Integrated technological and spatial aspects allow to study the social dimension of flint knapping at the site.
