The principal aim of this study is to put forward a technological
and typological analysis of the industries of the Early Neolithic
concerned in the process of neolithisation in several regions of
Southern Italy. The rooting concepts are centred on the principles
of the lithic technology outlined by J. Tixier, H. Roche, and M.-L.
Inizan, D. Binder, C. Perles, N. Pigeot et J. Pelegrin. The lithic
series examined belong to the different horizons concerned in the
process of Neolithitisation of Southern Italy in several areas of
the envisaged region. In a view to reconstruct the economy of
debitage and the economy of raw materials and the possible
formation of technical traditions, this research is based on the
following points: the economic and petrographic analysis of the raw
materials; the analysis of the technological aspects and of the
technical facts; the typometrical analysis of the different
products of the chaines operatoires; the typological analysis
through the creation of an inventory allowing to integrate the
study of the technological criteria with that of specific
characters of the lithic tools. The main targets of this research
are to highlight the methods and the techniques of debitage and to
identify the chaines operatoires set up by the early groups of
farmers in the South of Italy and in Sicily. Is it possible to
recognize a techno-economic variability in the debitage systems of
the Early Neolithic of Southern Italy? Is it possible to give a
cultural value to the variability of technical facts? What is the
rate of continuity and discontinuity among groups of
hunters-gatherers and the first farming societies? These questions
shed light on the whole of technical and cultural transformations
between the seventh and sixth millennium B.C. in the South of
Italy, a region that played a key role in the process of diffusion
of Neolithic towards the West Mediterranean.
