Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
located along the eastern bank of the River Axe in Devon, the Broom gravel pits have from at least the late-nineteenth century produced significant numbers of Acheulian bifaces made of Greensand chert. Although similar to flint in many respects, the use of this raw material provides an interesting contrast to the predominance of the latter within most assemblages from Southern England. Recent work by Ashton and McNabb (1993) and White (1998) has emphasised the role played by raw materials on biface form. It is with this in mind that the use of Greensand chert is discussed, in particular the effects of raw material quality and nodule size on artefact form | |||
