In the last twenty years, obsidian artefacts have been found in important and often extensive karst cavities in Southern Italy: three located in Calabria (Grotta della Monaca, and Grotta del Tesauro, in Sant’Agata di Esaro, Cosenza; Grotta Pietra Sant’Angelo in San Lorenzo Bellizzi, Cosenza), one in Puglia (Grotta di Santa Barbara in Polignano a Mare, Bari) and another in Campania (Grotta di Polla, Salerno). All these sites, that have returned a total of 151 obsidian tools, were connected to human frequentation of the underground environments that occurred during the Holocene, which can be precisely located in the vast period between the Neolithic and the Eneolithic (6 th –4 th millennium BC). They are mainly blades and bladelets, but also burins together with scrapers and cores, generally of small dimensions. SEM-EDS and WD-XRF absolutely non-destructive analyses carried out on these items have shown that all samples have a source area in the obsidian outcrops of the island of Lipari (Messina, Italy). These data confirm that the Aeolian island of Lipari furnished the privileged obsidian extraction outcrops for most of the Neolithic and Eneolithic archaeological sites of Southern Italy.

在意大利南部一些新石器时代至新石器时代洞穴中发现的黑曜石文物的岩石考古学分析

在过去的二十年中，在意大利南部的重要且通常是广泛的岩溶洞中发现了黑曜石文物：三个位于卡拉布里亚（Grotta della Monaca和Cosenza的Sant'Agata di Esaro的Grotta del Tesauro； Grotta Pietra Sant'Angelo在科森扎的圣洛伦佐·贝利齐（San Lorenzo Bellizzi），一个在普利亚（在巴里的波利尼亚诺阿马雷的Grotta di Santa Barbara）和另一个在坎帕尼亚（在萨勒诺的Grotta di Polla）。所有这些地点，总共返回了151个黑曜石工具，与人类对新世时期发生的地下环境的频繁访问有关，新世和新石器时代（第6至第4个之间）公元前千年）。它们主要是刀片和小叶片，但也有通常是小尺寸的burins以及刮板和芯子。在这些项目上进行的SEM-EDS和WD-XRF绝对无损分析表明，所有样品的产地都在利帕里岛（意大利墨西拿）的黑曜石露头区域。这些数据证实，利帕里州的风沙岛为意大利南部的大多数新石器时代和新石器时代的考古遗址提供了特权的黑曜石提取露头。
