AbstractIn prehistoric human populations, technologies played a fundamental role
in the acquisition of different resources and are represented in the main daily
living activities, such as with bone, wooden, and stone-tipped spears for

Abstract The exact strategies and technologies underlying Neanderthal hunting
events remain open for debate with lithic points being sparse across the
European Middle Palaeolithic. An exception is the Neronian entity in southeast

of hominin settlements in the region during the Late Pleistocene remain poorly
understood. New fieldwork at Seňa I, Slovakia, has identified the only known
stratified open-air A... hiện toàn bộ
