Seven papers from the session on Lithics and the Early and Middle
Neolithic Chronology in France given at the EAA conference in Lyon
in 2004. Work on lithic materials in the widest sense has developed
considerably over the last two decades, leading to an almost
complete renewal of methods and objectives. From the 1980s onwards
there emerged methods which have become classic: investigation of
raw materials, creation of reference collections (lithotheques),
characterization of procurement modes, studies of technology and
analyses of use-wear. Relative chronology, mainly established
through study of decorated ceramics, is still an essential aspect
of our discipline and new data have stimulated debate on the
relations between various cultural groups de fined on stylistic
grounds. This volume aims to review the contribution of lithic
studies in both France and neighbouring regions for establishing
the cultural sequences of the early and middle N Papers in French
and English.
