Download or read book American Flintknappers written by John C. Whittaker and published by University of Texas Press. This book was released on 2004-05-01 with total page 369 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Making arrowheads, blades, and other stone tools was once a survival skill and is still a craft practiced by thousands of flintknappers around the world. In the United States, knappers gather at regional "knap-ins" to socialize, exchange ideas and material, buy and sell both equipment and knapped art, and make stone tools in the company of others. In between these gatherings, the knapping community stays connected through newsletters and the Internet. In this book, avid knapper and professional anthropologist John Whittaker offers an insider's view of the knapping community. He explores why stone tools attract modern people and what making them means to those who pursue this art. He describes how new members are incorporated into the knapping community, how novices learn the techniques of knapping and find their roles within the group, how the community is structured, and how ethics, rules, and beliefs about knapping are developed and transmitted. He also explains how the practice of knapping relates to professional archaeology, the trade in modern replicas of stone tools, and the forgery of artifacts. Whittaker's book thus documents a fascinating subculture of American life and introduces the wider public to an ancient and still rewarding craft.

There have been some admirable attempts to produce such a volume, but these have been targeted at specific, fairly narrow audiences. Not so with Flintknapping. . . . [Whittaker’s] clear aim is to reach professional archaeologists as well as hobbyists. I believe he achieves this goal with incredible skill and humor. . . . I highly recommend this book to everyone interested in flintknapping.” —Plains Anthropologist “Very attractive to readers interested in ancient crafts, survival skills, or the history of technology . . . . Far superior to anything currently available.” —James C. Woods, director, The Herrett Museum, College of Southern Idaho

Download or read book Flint Knapping written by Robert Turner and published by The History Press. This book was released on 2013-06-03 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Flint knapping, which is the shaping of flint or other fracturing stone to manufacture tools, was one of the primary skills used for survival by our prehistoric ancestors. Early mankind once made and used these implements on a daily basis to hunt, prepare food and clothing, to farm, make shelters, and perform all the other tasks required for Stone Age existence. A material that has been with us since earliest times, flint still plays a part in our lives today: it is used in cigarette, gas and barbeque lighters; in some parts of Britain it is a major building material; and many of our beaches have shingle which is just flint by another name. In this informative and original guide, expert Robert Turner explains how flint was used, what tools were made and what they were made for, and provides detailed instruction of how to make them, enabling the reader to replicate their own Stone Age toolkit. Illustrated throughout, Flint Knapping is a journey of archaeological discovery through the Palaeolithic, Mesolithic, Neolithic and Bronze Ages.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The functional analysis of flint tool edges using High Power Microscopy has allowed a great increase in the information that can de derived from stone tools. Founded on this method, this study concerns stone tool functions in the Danish Late Mesolithic Ertebolle culture, as well as in the Neolithic Funnel Beaker Culture (the TRB). It focuses on evidence of prehistoric plant working, and the lacquer-like sheen or use wear known as `gloss'. The first part of the book discusses the methodology and some problems of interpretation, whilst the second discusses the manufacturing of implements, and the analysis of use wear on TRB sickles. A resume in Danish is also included.
