Abstract
The primary emphasis of this study is placed on the “déjetés” flakes within the context of the Zagros Mousterian industry. The objective is to explore how various knapping gestures and positions of the upper limbs may influence the attributes of these blanks. The hypothesis proposed establishes a potential correlation between the probale more limited abduction range in Neanderthals, the altered direction of force applied during the impact, and the flakes that are released diagonally.
本研究的主要重点是扎格罗斯火枪工业背景下的“dejetes”薄片。统一各knapping客观is to explore The how may and of The upper limbs阵地影响力,只要是The符合性of these“空白”。所提出的假设确立了尼安德特人可能的更有限的绑架范围、在撞击过程中施加的力方向的改变以及对角释放的薄片之间的潜在关联。本研究的主要重点是在扎格罗斯的莫斯特工业背景下产生的碎片。目的是探索不同的大小手势和上肢位置如何影响这些碎片的属性。提出的假设建立了尼安德特人更有限的外展范围、撞击时施加的力方向的改变和对角线释放的碎片之间的潜在相关性。
