Archaeologists have struggled to find meaningful and cost effective ways to analyze and interpret prehistoric quarry sites. Quarry site deposits typically contain large quantities of broken rock fragments that generally lack morphological attributes commonly used for lithic debitage analysis. Remnants of quarry pits often overlap and converge, forming complex cultural landscapes that are difficult to document and understand. Archaeological excavations near Glens Falls, New York, uncovered evidence of prehistoric mine pits, dense layers of chert quarry debris, and intensively battered bedrock surfaces. High resolution mass analysis was used to analyze large quantities of quarry debris. A new classification for prehistoric quarry sites and new models for quarry site development are proposed.

史前石器采石场发展模型

考古学家一直在努力寻找有意义的,具有成本效益的方式来分析和解释史前采石场。采石场沉积物通常包含大量破碎的岩石碎片,这些岩石碎片通常缺乏通常用于岩性借方分析的形态属性。采石场的残留物经常重叠并会聚,形成了难以记录和理解的复杂文化景观。纽约格伦斯福尔斯附近的考古发掘发现了史前矿坑,密集的dense石采石场碎片层和重创的基岩表面的证据。高分辨率质量分析用于分析大量采石场碎片。提出了史前采石场的新分类和采石场发展的新模型。
