wonderful neanderthal jasper straight 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: wonderful jasper straight scraper with fantastic ventral flaking and beautiful ventral retouched working edge beautiful 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. Bean-ore jasper Material geologic: secundary colored. Eluvial jurassic chert This unique artefact is from an Neanderthal base camp. More information will be sent with the artefact.

Industry: Middle Paleolithic: Quina Mousterian. Dating: approx. 75.000 to 65.000 B.C. Isotope stage 4, the first cold maximum of the last glaciation in Europe, where climatic conditions were harsh and extremely cold. Description: Size: length 6.2 cm, weight 20 grams, Shape. Retouch: a thin elongated Levallois target-flake with small platform remnant and the negative scars of careful core-preparation on the exterior side(see last two pictures) The scraper has a very fine stepped retouch at the flat edge. Very typical for tools of the Quina Mousterian. Raw-material: marbled bright grey patinated flint, Preservation: very well: flint quality is soft and somewhat porous due to desilification ... moreafter deposition. The tool has some small surface abrasions at the proximal and distal end. Which in no way detract from it’s value and beauty, Additional Information. Literature: Some characteristics of the Quina Mousterian industry: only little Levallois technique was used. But Clacton flakes were preferred, no handaxes were found in the assemblages, a very high percentage of scrapers with lateral, double, convergent, transverse as most common ones, and sometimes small very thin scrapers with a very fine stepped retouch. Preferred retouch was the stepped/ or Quina retouch, made with hard strikes first which produced broad, irregular flake negatives and secondary refining retouches directly at the edges in a second step. Origin. Site: the famous(eponymous) site of La Quina. Charente, France, excavated by Dr. Henri-Martin from 1905 to 1936. A total of 27 Neanderthal individuals were found, the most famous is"Homo 5" We have been listing more interesting paleolithic artifacts. Please have a look! Do you have questions?
