Abstract

This rock - shelter preserves a stratigraphic sequence more than 6 meters deep and with a surface of about 60 square meters which contains several very rich Middle Paleolithic layers. The investigated layers date back to the first part of MIS3. Lithics from US1 and 4 is characterized by a predominance of recurrent unipolar Levallois system aimed at achieving flat standardized items with parallel or convergent edges usable lengthwise. An independent blade/bladelet volumetric debitage is also attested, even if to a less extent. In this case technical objectives are elongated products variable in thickness and showing flat butts. Items transformed by retouching are principally embodied by convex side-scrapers and points with different morphologies, whereas denticulates are less numerous.
