The Szeletian in Central Europe and the Kostenki-Streletskaya industry in Eastern Europe: state of art in the study of diverse “bifacial industries” with a special emphasis on possible Aurignacian features

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

Study discusses the industrial-chronological status of the Szeletian and Kostenki-Streletskaya industries in Central and Eastern Europe based on our present knowledge and using exclusively in situ excavated materials. The study resulted in the following main observations. The two industries geochronologically are associated with the Initial Upper Palaeolithic preceding Heinrich Event 4 (HE4) and the Campanian Ignimbrite (CI) super-eruption at ca. 40 ka cal BP. For now, absolute dates of the Szeletian are older than of the Kostenki-Streletskaya but the geochronological contemporarity of the two industries cannot be ruled out. At the same time, no archaeological data support a developed or final stage for them. Techno-typological data of the lithic artefacts show basic similarities, and certain typological differences based on which the Eastern European industry seems more developed than the Central European one. We consider two equally possible hypotheses about the Kostenki-Streletskaya industry’s origin. We suggest that Szeletian human groups moved from Central to Eastern Europe, but a much earlier claim of an Asian origin for the industry is also plausible. True Szeletian and Kostenki-Streletskaya assemblages do not contain any proper Aurignacian core or tool types, apart from palimpsest situations and artefact classification issues. Presently, Hlinsko-Kouty I is the only in situ site in Central and Eastern Europe where bifacial triangular points and carinated burin-cores were found in real association, as part of one lithic assemblage confirmed by refitting. This Moravian site represents the probably late Early Upper Palaeolithic “Morava-type Aurignacian”, which almost certainly was not connected genetically to the Szeletian industry. More studies are needed for the evaluation of potentially similar sites in both Central and Eastern Europe.
