Issue Date: | 2015 | Publisher: | Springer | Journal: | Use-Wear And Residue Analysis In Archaeology | Abstract: | In this chapter we explain the specificities posed by the use-wear analysis of homogeneous and heterogeneous rocks other than flint. We describe the experimentation carried out with such raw-materials as quartz, quartzite and obsidian, and propose the same means of observation as for the analysis of implements in flint and/or bone: binocular magnifying glass for the study of the macrotraces and metallographic microscope for microtraces. The types of marks seen are described, stressing the specific traits of each raw material. | URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/10553/74121 | ISBN: | 978-3-319-08256-1 | ISSN: | 1571-5752 | DOI: | 10.1007/978-3-319-08257-8_5 | Source: | Use-Wear And Residue Analysis in Archaeology / Marreiros J., Gibaja Bao J., Ferreira Bicho N.
