这项研究显示了石器原材料的出现如何与狩猎采集技术组织相结合。三个考古数据集,代表109个不同的网站和一个民族志数据集,从澳大利亚进行检查,显示石器原料的大小,形状,质量和可用性发挥了重要作用,狩猎采集者的决定,使各种石器。岩屑物质产状的这些特征被用来帮助解释为什么有时会使用诸如双极工具生产之类的权宜技术,以及为什么诸如双面生产之类的正式技术可能被选择作为工具生产策略。石器形态变异性和工艺变异性与石器原材料的地质产状直接相关。John Wiley & Sons,Inc.
This study shows how the occurrence of lithic raw-materials articulate with hunter gatherer technological organization. Three archaeological data sets representing 109 different sites and one ethnographic data set from Australia are examined to show that lithic raw-material size, shape, quality, and availability play a major role in hunter gatherer decisions to make various kinds of stone tools. These characteristics of lithic material occurrence are used to help explain why expedient technologies such as bipolar tool production are sometimes used, and why formalized technologies such as bifacial production may be selected as a tool production strategy. Stone tool morphological variability and technological variability are shown to be directly related to the geological occurrence of stone tool raw materials. © 1994 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
