Beschreibung

This book systematically presents a use-wear analysis of quartzite stone artifacts from the Chinese Paleolithic archaeological record. It provides raw data and images from experimental and archaeological studies, building a comprehensive reference for international archaeologists to understand lithic reduction technology and utilization of quartzite tools by prehistorical humans, and offers an in-depth interpretation of human adaptative strategies and behavior patterns. In addition, this book shows an example of a theory-driven case study that demonstrates the significance and application of computer science techniques in archaeological research, such as data mining and cluster analysis to establish meaningful connections between material and remains and behavioral information.
