European Acheuleans: Critical perspectives from the East

This study proposes to reconsider the diversity of tool blanks concealed within the term Acheulean through the analysis of five lithic assemblages. Three of them come from Central Europe (Korolevo VI in Ukraine, Vértesszőlős in Hungary and Bilzingsleben in Germany) and will be compared with two collections from Southern Europe (Cimitero di Atella and Ficoncella in Italy).
