Abstract:Although ground stone tools (GSTs) are among the most abundant stone tools in archaeological sites, they are rarely investigated both from the archaeological and the geological point of view. There are many pieces made of siliciclastic sedimentary raw material. Their fragmentary condition makes it possible to examine them by slightly destructive methods, such HMA (heavy mineral analysis), which was developed primarily for siliciclastic rocks. Until now, ‘sensu stricto’ (s.str) heavy mineral analysis has not ye… Show more
