Training on lithic technology

Base archéologique de Pincevent (Seine-et-Marne) La Grande-Paroisse, France

The aim of this workshop is twofold: to train young researchers in the technological analysis of lithic industries; and to clarify the vocabulary and work on the harmonisation of the terminology used in French, English and German.
Each day will be divided into four modules: a documentary or methodological module, a tutorial module based on archaeological or experimental collections, and a practical module with guided demonstrations of flint knapping and practical initiation to knapping. The fourth module will focus on harmonizing the vocabulary.
