Description

Stone Tools: Theoretical Insights into Human Prehistory offers a necessary shift in how lithic analysis is conducted within the field of archaeology. For years, lithic analysts have faced criticism for being atheoretical or failing to contribute to broader archaeological theory. This volume by Springer addresses that gap directly. Renowned lithic analysts use explicit theoretical constructs to examine the archaeological record. By utilizing the lithic database to support their arguments, the contributors provide a structured way to understand human prehistory. This collection of interdisciplinary contributions provides a deep look into the mechanics of stone tool use and evolution. Readers will find detailed discussions on essential topics such as curation, design theory, and the replacement of stone with metal. The book also covers piece refitting and projectile point style, making it a vital resource for those studying the biological and social history of human tool development. It is an essential addition to any academic library focused on archaeology and biological sciences.
