Kompletní popis

Despite their ubiquitous presence among prehistoric remains in Greece, ground stone tools have yet to attract the kind of attention as have other categories of archaeological material, such as pottery or lithics. "Flexible Stones" provides a detailed analysis of the material discovered during the excavations at Franchthi Cave, Peloponnese, Greece. The Franchthi material consists of approximately 500 tools, the raw material used for their manufacture, as well as the byproducts of such manufacture. Most of this collection comes from the Neolithic component of the site - including a small number of Palaeolithic and Mesolithic cases - with a large number of the studied tools indicating multiple uses. Anna Stroulia sees the multifunctional character of these tools not so much as a response to an environmental constraint, than as a conscious choice that reflects a flexible attitude of tool makers and users toward tools and raw materials.
