Hoarding unworked flints within humid microenvironments : new evidence from the Mesolithic of the southern Alps
p. 173-185
Abstract
A hoard composed of six blocks of flint has recently been discovered inside a peat bog on the Cansiglio Plateau (Venetian Pre-Alps). The blocks were collected in sources situated 25 kms far from the plateau and in almost all cases they were refuse before being carried onto the site. Owing to the preliminary stage of the fieldwork, only a few hypotheses regarding the significance of the hoard can be proposed here, above all in relation to an adjacent Epigravettian open-air site. Comparisons with other hoards in Europe highlight the peculiarity of this kind of structure.
