Abstract
Irene Levi Sala 1929--1991
Norah Moloney
1 - 2
A late-comer to archaeology, Irene Levi Sala became an accomplished student of microwear and worked on sites in England, Italy and Israel. AR
New finds and old problems in the Lower Palaeolithic of the Upper Thames Valley
R J MacRae
3 - 15
Records an assemblage of flint artefacts found at Stanton Harcourt, Oxfordshire, discussing their possible origins with reference to local geology. AR
Researching the Early Palaeolithic: an organisational manifesto
Francis F Wenban-Smith
16 - 23
Describes the Levalloisian technology with reference to flint finds from Baker's Hole in south-east England, and argues that the conceptual requirements of this technique indicate the intellectual capacity of its practitioners was on a par with that of modern humans. AR
Windmill Hill Cave, Brixham: setting the record straight
Peter J Berridge
Alison Roberts
24 - 30
Relates the history of the flint finds from this cave uncovered in 1858, three of which became mixed up with those of a collection from Kent's Cavern. Now correctly attributed, these three pieces are described, and some errors regarding other flints from the assemblage are corrected. AR
The en éperon technique in the British Late Upper Palaeolithic
Nick Barton
31 - 33
Describes this method of platform preparation used in the manufacture of long, straight flint blades. AR
The East Anglian peculiar? The `squat' flake
Hazel Martingell
40 - 43
Reviews the occurrence of these distinctively shaped flakes and cores, found in Late Bronze Age/Early Iron Age contexts and in later periods as possible gunflint blanks. AR
Clactonian gunflints?
John McNabb
Nick Ashton
44 - 47
Describes an assemblage of flints found on the Thames foreshore in 1939, only recently recognised to be the product of a fairly complex technology producing flakes from which further flakes are removed. The end product would have been the secondary flakes which were not present in the collection. The flints are now believed to be waste products of the `wedge' technique of gunflint manufacture, first used in Kent, Wiltshire and Hampshire between 1660 and c 1780. AR
Fieldwalking in Cheshire
Adele Mayer
48 - 50
Outlines a fieldwalking project designed to establish the distribution and use patterns of Mesolithic and Neolithic flints and cherts on the North Cheshire sandstone ridge. Anomalies in distribution have occurred, possibly due to relative farming intensity and the movement of soils between fields in the nineteenth century. AR
