Elaboración de nódulos en porcelana para experimentos de talla lítica

Abstract

This work presents the results of a controlled experience on porcelain nodules manufacture using two types of porcelain clay and different colours. The experience has two main objectives in order to carry out future experimental programs. The first goal is to compare and choose which type of clay offers better results on knapping with different hammers. The second objective is to test the visibility of knapping stigmas in different colours. A third objective that underlies this experience is to reach the Experimental Archaeology Laboratory self-sufficiency by acquiring the skill of porcelain nodules manufacture.
