Technological differentiation associated with the Saint-Césaire Neandertal

p. 187-196

Abstract

Technological study of the lithic assemblage from the Castelperronian level at Saint-Césaire (Charente-Maritime, France) reveals internal differentiation between "archaic" and "Upper Paleolithic" themes. This technology, associated with the most recent Neandertal known, is analyzed here in its spatio-temporal context. Observations pertaining to technological differentiation and to the organization of space in the rockshelter are presented, and the significance of these new data to the transition from Middle to Upper Paleolithic is briefly discussed.
