Show more >The site of Sajóbábony is the first site excavated as part of the "Hungarian Palaeolithic" programme funded by the french Ministry of Europe and Foreign Affairs, the French Institute of Budapest, the University of Lille, the University Eötvös Lorand of Budapest, Museum of Natural History of Paris and the Herman Otto Museum in Miskolc. 17 researchers and students will work bilaterally on the project for 4 years (2019-2022) (Dir. A. Lamotte and Zs. Mester). 1882 artefacts were discovered over an excavated area of 12 m2. It seems that 2 occupations are visible : one belongs to the upper palaeolithic, the other to the middle one. The main categories are flakes showing all steps of knapping and shaping, leafpoints and scrapers. Cores and nodules are rare or absent. A significant alteration is observed at the tip of the tool. The strong development of micro-polishes in the distal area and lateral edges suggests long contacts, maybe with a half-hard materials like wood.Show less >
