ABSTRACT

The Acheulean represents one of the most widespread cultural complexes spanning from Africa to Eurasia between 1.8 and 0.2 Mya. The site of Revadim, located on the southern coastal plain of Israel, represent one of the rare opportunities allowing to perform detailed functional analysis of stone tool assemblages from such old contexts. This paper presents data originating from the functional analysis of three lithic assemblages coming from two areas of the site (B and C). Our results suggest that at Revadim most of the tools were used for the processing of soft materials, possibly related to butchering activities along with some tools used to process vegetal materials and bone. The evidence here presented highlight the use wear potentials of Revadim and its implication in the investigation of the range of activities performed by Levantine Acheulean early human groups.

关于晚期Acheulean石器工具的功能:来自以色列Revadim旧石器时代遗址下三个特定考古背景的新数据

摘要

Acheulean代表了从1.8到0.2 Mya跨非洲到非洲到欧亚大陆最广泛的文化情结之一。Revadim的地点位于以色列南部沿海平原,这是难得的机会之一,可以根据这种旧环境对石材工具组合进行详细的功能分析。本文介绍的数据来自对站点两个区域(B和C)的三个岩性组合进行功能分析。我们的结果表明,在Revadim中,大多数工具都用于处理软材料,可能与屠宰活动有关,还有一些工具用于处理植物材料和骨骼。
