Abstract
The paper by Rots & Plisson in JAS has initiated an interesting debate about the methodologies applied in identifying lithic weapons. Some of their criticisms are discussed and some clarification of the criteria for recognizing wear patterns is proposed. The relevance of working within a general historical/anthropological model to contextualize ancient weapon use is highlighted.
