摘要
This paper presents the results obtained by lithic analysis of Early Upper Palaeolithic levels in Sandalja II Cave, Istria, Croatia. Technological and typological analysis of stone and typological analysis of bone artefacts have been carried out. Production of flakes in Aurignacian levels (G, F, E and E/F) is dominant, but blade and bladelets production is also present. Blades and bladelets were produced by direct soft hammer technique. Aurignacian people of Sandalja II produced their debitage mainly on local grey chert, which is often patinated. Sandalja II is one of the rare-if not the only-site with Aurignacian industry in eastern Adriatic region. The main reason for absence of such industry at other sites can be seen in scarce population or abandonment of some parts of this region. (C) 2003 Editions scientifiques et medicales Elsevier SAS.
