Description: Size: width 7.7 cm, length 4,6 cm, weight 95 grams, Shape. Retouch: a fantastic. Quite large transverse convex Quina scraper on thick, sturdy Clacton flake with typical large plain platform remnant. The scraper is made at the wide distal end with great steep stepped flaking, covering 2/3 of the edge, 1/3 has only 2 flat broad flake scars. The cortical area on the exterior side is concave, being a great grip. That’s why the proximal end end of the tool ... morehas a blunting(see picture 9) The dark right edge is a genuine old natural break of the flint with slightly rough surface. Raw-material: gorgeously creamy patinated flint with many marine inclusions. Which are the dark spots, Preservation: very well: the flint is somewhat soft and porpous due to desilification after deposition. Very typical for this site. The edges have some small rough spots/ abrasions, but the retouched scraper edge is flawless. Additional Information.

rare fantastic neanderthal concave side scraper Mousterian ca. 50 000BC
The Neandertal was named after theologian Joachim Neander. Who lived nearby in Düsseldorf in the late 17th century. Neander" is a classicized form of the common German surname Neumann. In turn, Neanderthals were named after"Neander Valley" where the first Neanderthal remains were found. The term Neanderthal Man was coined in 1863 by Anglo-Irish geologist William King. From the period called"Mousterian" 150 000- 40 000 b.c. tools made of stone. Settlement sites and some parts of human skulls were found. Evidence for hunters and collectors in this period was found in Bavaria, Baden-Württemberg and other parts of Germany. Neanderthals are thought to have used tools of the Mousterian class. Which were often produced using soft hammer percussion, with hammers made of materials like bones, antlers, and wood, rather ... morethan hard hammer percussion, using stone hammers. A result of this is that their bone industry was relatively simple. However, there is good evidence that they routinely constructed a variety of stone implements. Neanderthal(Mousterian) tools most often consisted of sophisticated stone-flakes, task-specific hand axes, and spears. Many of these tools were very sharp. There is also good evidence that they used a lot of wood, objects which are unlikely to have been preserved until today. Typ: rare fantastic concave side scraper with wonderful dorsal and ventral flaking and beautiful dorsal and ventral edge retouchin. Marked points of percussion, rest of cortex and great patina excellent provenance The work traces of the Neanderthals which he left in the manufacture of the tool is to see very well Material: chert Synonyms: Bohnerzjaspis.

80.000Y.O: FANTASTIC FLINT BURIN STONE AGE PALEOLITHIC NEANDERTHAL MOUSTERIAN
EUROPEAN STONE AGE ARTIFACTS BY PALATINA AUTHENTICITY GUARANTEED Description of the Homo Neanderthalensis- the Neanderthal( Neandertal) men from the Mousterian phase about 100.000- 60.000 years ago. Most likely a burin or a borer with oblique side tip! The length of this terrific patinated flint tool is 68 mms. The Mousterian industry appeared around 200.000 years ago and persisted until about 40,000 years ago, in much the same areas of Europe, the Near East and Africa where Acheulean tools appear. In Europe these tools are most closely associated with Homo neanderthalensis, but elsewhere were made by both Neanderthals and early Homo sapiens. Mousterian tools required a preliminary shaping of the stone core from which the actual blade is struck off. The toolmakers either shaped a rock into a rounded surface before striking off the raised ... morearea as a wedge shaped flake(see photo at left) or they shaped the core as a long prism of stone before striking off triangular flakes from its length, like slices from a baguette. Because Mousterian tools were conceived as refinements on a few distinct core shapes, the whole process of making tools had standardized into explicit stages(basic core stone, rough blank, refined final tool) Variations in tool shapes could be produced by changes in the procedures at any stage. A consistent manufacturing goal was to increase as much as possible the cutting area on each blade. Though this made the toolmaking process more labor intensive, it also meant the edges of the tools could be reshaped or sharpened as they dulled, so that each tool lasted longer. The whole toolmaking industry had adapted to get the maximum utility from the labor invested at each step. Tool forms in the Mousterian industry display a wide range of specialized shapes. Cutting tools include notched flakes, denticulate(serrated) flakes, and flake blades similar to Upper Paleolithic tools. Points appear that seem designed for use in spears or lances, some including a tang or stub at the base that allowed the p
