考古学家将通过磨损、啄食或抛光来改变其他物品或用于改变其他物品的石制品称为“磨石”。这包括用于加工植物材料、颜料、粘土和脾气的砂浆和研锤；用于制造其他人工制品的研磨器、抛光石和锤子石；以及通过磨损或啄食形成的人工制品，如斧头、管子、小雕像、装饰品和建筑作品。由于片状和研磨石文物之间存在模糊的界限，一些分析师指出，研磨石包括任何不被认为是片状的石制品。本手册提供了一种灵活而结构化的方法来分析石器文物并将其归类为有意义的类别。分析技术记录了基于设计、制造和使用的重要属性。第一部分讨论了磨削技术的确定功能、分类、属性、使用-磨损分析、建模工具使用、人种学和实验资源的利用以及研究建议。第二部分包含构件类型的定义和描述。在这里，作者还试图解开围绕术语应用的冲突而形成的结。对于任何遇到此类文物的考古田野工作者或学生来说，这都是一个重要的参考。
Archaeologists refer to stone artifacts that are altered by or used to alter other items through abrasion, pecking, or polishing as "ground stone." This includes mortars, and pestles used to process vegetal materials, pigments, clays, and tempers; abraders, polishing stones, and hammerstones for manufacturing other artifacts; and artifacts shaped by abrasion or pecking, such as axes, pipes, figurines, ornaments, and architectural pieces. Because there is a fuzzy line between flaked and ground stone artifacts, some analysts state that ground stone includes any stone item not considered flaked.This manual presents a flexible yet structured method for analyzing stone artifacts and classifying them in meaningful categories. The analysis techniques record important attributes based on design, manufacture, and use.Part I contains discussions on determining function, classification, attributes of grinding technology, use-wear analysis, modeling tool use, utilization of ethnographic and experimental resources, and research suggestions. Part II contains definitions and descriptions of artifact types. Here the author also seeks to unravel the knot that has developed around conflicting application of terms.A significant reference for any archaeological fieldworker or student who encounters such artifacts."
