Beskrivelse
This book showcases 390 palaeolithic stone artefacts uncovered from Stone Age sites within the Moroccan Sahara. Each site is mapped within a 400 km² area and includes detailed descriptions alongside landscape photos and GBS coordinates.
An in-depth visual and scientific exploration of quartzite artefacts from the Moroccan Sahara’s Stone Age sites.
The artefacts featured in this collection are all crafted from quartzite, a material that presents more challenges for stone knappers compared to flint. The book highlights how these findings reflect the recurring humid periods during the palaeolithic Stone Age, a conclusion supported by Optical Stimulated Luminescence analysis.
This is the first comprehensive presentation of desert stone artefacts within such a focused local area, offering valuable insights for archaeologists. The publication opens with an overview of the origin and history of stone artefacts, setting the stage for the detailed content that follows.
