This book was released on 2011 with total page 584 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Relative to flaked stone assemblages, ground stone implements have generally been subject to less intensive examination and interpretation. The present research uses a methodology that centers on functional associations within and between major ground stone artifact categories. In-depth analyses concentrating on the kinds and relative amounts of use-wear are more informative and accurate. The goal of this study was to better understand factors influencing the ground stone technologies of north-central California. This study examines variation in several archaeological assemblages from different areas and time periods, including the northern Sierra Nevada (CA-NEV-199), Lake Oroville and the Feather River Drainage (CA-BUT-84 and BUT-362/H), the Sacramento Valley (CA-SAC-225 and BUT-288), and the southern North Coast Ranges (multiple sites in the Clear Lake Basin and Warm Springs/Lake Sonoma locality). Analyses focused on specific use-wear attributes of mortars, pestles, handstones, mullers, and millingslabs ranging in age from approximately 5000 B.P. to the historic era. Nuances in the morphology and patterns of tool wear reveal differences across and between ground stone assemblages, identifying important temporal and spatial trends in north-central California. Several chronological trends become evident from in the data, however, most variability appears to relate to environmental constraints. Across all tool categories, environments, and time periods, the impressionability of a material has an overwhelming influence on many attributes. Dual-use tools -- "mullers" -- become an almost axiomatic part of one shift, indicating the need for a tool to perform sufficiently in multiple ways. In addition, some generally accepted notions are not separated by results of this study, i.e., that handstones were more shaped and formalized in earlier temporal intervals. Shifts in ground stone technology are reflected not only by changing ratios of tools within archaeological assemblages, but in the kinds and amounts of secondary modification, toolstone choice, use-wear, and other attributes.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ground stone artefacts were widely used in food production in prehistory. However, the archaeological community has widely neglected the dataset of ground stone artefacts until now. 'New Approaches to Old Stones' offers a theoretical and methodological analysis of the archaeological data pertaining to ground stone tools. The essays draw on a range of case studies - from the Levant, Egypt, Crete, Anatolia, Mexico and North America - to examine ground stone technologies. From medieval Islamic stone cooking vessels and late Minoan stone vases, to the use of stone in ritual and as a symbol of luxury, 'New Approaches to Old Stones' offers a radical reassessment of the impact of ground-stone artefacts on technological change, production and exchange.

Download or read book Flexible Stones written by Anna Stroulia and published by Indiana University Press. This book was released on 2010-03-30 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite their ubiquitous presence among prehistoric remains in Greece, ground stone tools have yet to attract the same kind of attention as have other categories of archaeological material, such as pottery or lithics. Flexible Stones provides a detailed analysis of the material discovered during the excavations at Franchthi Cave, Peloponnese, Greece. Approximately 500 tools, the raw material used for their manufacture, as well as the byproducts of such manufacture were found. Most of this collection comes from the Neolithic component of the site—including a small number of Palaeolithic and Mesolithic cases—with a large number of the studied tools indicating multiple uses. Anna Stroulia sees the multifunctional character of these tools as a conscious choice that reflects a flexible attitude of tool makers and users toward tools and raw materials. A CD-Rom with 209 additional plates is included.
