Petrologic, Morphologic and Functional Analysеs of Ground and Abrasive stone Tools from Rug Bair, Ovče Pole valley
Abstract
This paper represents the results of the ground and abrasive stone tools analyses based on the finds collected during the excavation of Rug Bair undertaken in 1970s, and today stored in the Museum and Institute for Protection of Štip. The studies were made possible with the help from the Faculty of Natural and Technical Sciences, Štip, Republic of Macedonia. Through the stone material, an attempt was made a more comprehensive picture of the raw material, petrologic, technical and typological characteristics of the Neolithic stone industry at this site to be gained as well as its relationship with related simultaneously industries.Downloads
