One of the prehistoric galleries at Grime’s Graves - a Neolithic flint mine, near Thetford in Norfolk. Under the care of English Heritage, visitors can descend nine metres into one of the prehistoric mine shafts! 📸 My own. #FlintFriday #GrimesGraves #Norfolk
Happy #FlintFriday 🤗

Are you ready for a #FlintFriday #publication? my comparative analysis of lithic technology across various early Upper Palaeolithic technocomplexes just got out and it's #OpenAccess on the Quartär (@Obermaier_Soc) website bit.ly/3T7xcFO

Two recent technofunctional studies shed light on the role of Middle Pleistocene small tools. Both articles show that, despite their small size, such artifacts were used in animal butchering and wood processing.

Interestingly, in both cases - at Schöningen (Germany) ca 300ka and Marathousa 1 (Greece) ca 450ka - these small artifacts occur in association with elephant (Paleoloxodon) remains, perhaps indicating an outsize role in the activities of archaic humans.

Blades have a special meaning in #Palaeolithic #Archaeology, for better or worse. On #FlintFriday 13.01 at 16:00 CET we'll discuss laminar productions before the Upper Palaeolithic, focusing on late #Neanderthals and early European Homo sapiens. Ask for the Teams #link to join!
