The Middle Palaeolithic Leaf Points of Europe: Ecology, Knowledge and Scale - Paperback

by Terry Hopkinson (Author)

An investigation of the relations between heterogeneity in the material world and variations in human behaviour, particularly landscape settlement and stone tool fabrication, in the European Lower and Middle Palaeolithic. A theoretical approach termed ecological geography is developed. This approach is applied to the Middle leaf point industries of Europe, and in particular the Middle Palaeolithic of the Altmuhl Valley in Bavaria.
