Abstract
Axe Grinding Grooves in the Absence of Axes: Neolithic Axe Trade in Raichur Doab, South India
Highlights
The technological innovation of grounding axes/celts developed during the Neolithic culture [1,2,3]
Various research problems exist in the studies of southern Neolithic culture including the origin of ashmounds, pastoral and pastoral cum agriculture site economies depending on the regional landscapes, the mode of chaîne opératoire for dolerite and cryptocrystalline-based lithic tool production, settlement patterns etc
Despite the celts being well known in the Neolithic sites, axe-grinding grooves are known categories in the southern Neolithic research that are not subjected to analytical operations in common to understand the importance and contribution of such workshop locales in the background of site or regional economy
