Assessing geometric microliths as cultural markers through an analysis of shape variation and projectile performance
Abstract European geometric microlith shape variation is often used as a marker of cultural differences between groups of Mesolithic hunter gatherers and/or Neolithic farmers. Indeed, the 2D plan-view shape of these lithics is known to vary in spatially and temporally systematic ways between archaeo...
