This book is designed to act as a readily accessible guide to
different methods and techniques of use-wear and residue analysis
and therefore includes a wide range of different and complementary
essential topics: experimental tests, observation and record
methods and techniques and the interpretation of a diversity of
tool types and worked raw materials. The onset of use-wear
studies was marked by the development of theory, method and
techniques in order to infer prehistoric tools functionality and,
therefore, understand human technological, social and cultural
behavior. The last decade of functional studies, use-wear and
residue analysis have been aimed at the observation, recording and
interpretation of different activities and worked materials found
on archaeological tools made on different types of organic and
non-organic materials. This international group of contributions
will be fundamental for all researchers and students of the
discipline.
