The site is situated directly on a source of good quality flint, and recent theories suggest that such a setting may have certain predictable effects on the lithic industries. These effects, and others relating to current models of raw material procurement and use, are discussed.\u003cbr\u003eThis book will appeal to anyone interested in Paleolithic archaeology, lithic analysis, raw material use, and site formation and taphonomy.\u003cbr\u003eUniversity Museum Monograph, 91\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eList of Figures\u003cbr\u003e List of Tables\u003cbr\u003e Foreword\u003cbr\u003e Preface\u003cbr\u003e Introduction\u003cbr\u003e Ch. 1.
