The Exploitation of Raw Materials in Prehistory

This collection presents state-of-the-art approaches to the use of inorganic raw materials in the period known as prehistory. It focuses on stone-tools, adornments, colorants and pottery from Europe, America and Africa.

The book represents a framework of raw material investigation for those working in science, regardless of the time period, region of the world or materials they are studying.
