The aim of this training is twofold: (1) to train young researchers in the technological analysis of lithic industries; (2) 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. The session will be held in English.

Each day will be organized around a specific theme, providing a diachronic perspective from the Palaeolithic to the Neolithic periods.
