Retouchers from Mammoth Tusks in the Middle Palaeolithic: A Case Study from Kůlna Cave Layer 7a1 (Czech Republic)

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

The existence of retouchers made from hard animal tissues in the Middle Palaeolithic was first identified in the early 20th century, but only in recent years have researchers been paying more attention to this phenomenon. The overwhelming majority of retouchers are fragments of bones without modifications to the shape of the objects. In the collection of these ad hoc tools from the Micoquian layer 7a1 in Kůlna Cave (Czech Republic) we also identified two retouchers of mammoth ivory. So far, the use of this material for retouchers at Kůlna Cave remains unique in the Middle Palaeolithic of Europe. A diachronic comparison of Taubachian and Micoquian assemblages of hard animal tissues with anthropic impact suggests that the utilisation of mammoth ivory in the Micoquian was not just a random phenomenon, but it was probably related with the overall change in Neanderthal behaviour towards mammoths as a source of raw materials.
