瓦尔瓦西 (Warwasi) 的扎尔赞 (Zarzian) 旧石器时代的占领产生了超过 17,000 件石制品，之前的分析将扎尔赞 (Zarzian) 的等级划分为四个按时间顺序排列的单位。细石器占每个单元组合的 35% 以上，几何形状出现在前三个单元中。最常见的几何形状是不等边三角形（规则的和细长的形式）。各种细石器形式记录了各种公制和非公制属性。本文讨论了不等边三角形、拉长不等边三角形和截头小叶。截断的小叶片可能代表两种斜角肌形式的制造中未完成或被拒绝的尝试。宏观检查未能得出抛光的证据，这表明这些细石器并未用于切割瓦尔瓦西的高硅质植物。基于与黎凡特月骨细石器属性的比较，关于斜角肌和细长斜角肌三角形可能作为箭头组件的方式提出了几个初步假设。
The Zarzian Epipalaeolithic occupation at Warwasi yielded over 17,000 stone artifacts, with previous analyses resulting in a division of the Zarzian levels into four chronological units. Microliths comprise in excess of 35% of each of the unit assemblages, with geometric forms occurring in the top three units. The most common geometric is the scalene triangle (regular and elongated forms). A variety of metric and nonmetric attributes was recorded for various microlith forms. This paper discusses scalene triangles, elongated scalene triangles, and truncated bladelets. Truncated bladelets may represent unfinished or rejected attempts in the manufacture of the two scalene forms. Macroscopic examination failed to yield evidence of polish, suggesting that these microliths were not used to cut highly siliceous plants at Warwasi. Based on a comparison with attributes of Levantine lunate microliths, several preliminary hypotheses are offered regarding the manner in which scalene and elongated scalene triangles may have been hafted as arrow components.
