Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
Argues that there is no ambiguity in the existing empirical support for a GIUR as a robust predictor of mass lost from flakes through unifacial retouching. Attempts to demonstrate why the GIUR is a reliable method for inferring mass loss, in appropriate circumstances, and why it is a more powerful predictor of mass loss than touted competitors. Contends that Eren, M.I., Sampson's, G. [2009. Kuhn's Geometric Index of Unifacial stone tool Reduction (GIUR): does it measure missing flake mass? J. Archaeol. Sci.] arguments are faulty and that researchers should use the GIUR in preference to other methods of estimating the extent of unifacial retouch. | ||
