Abstract
In the paper flint finds from Severynivka hillfort are analysed. They represent several chronological periods. The main part of the collection belongs to the Upper Palaeolithic. Separate tools by their characteristics refer to the Neolithic—Late Bronze period. A small group consists of items that cannot be clearly associated with a particular chronological period.
Highlights
The cores are presented by two samples and one fragment
Judging by one of the side parts, it was formed by transverse negatives of edge creation and negative of one flake, cleaved from the edge between the side and rear surface
The tools are represented by two scrapers, one of the site are selected by core manufacturing, parts, which is combined with a burin on the truncation, or directly in pre-cores or cores; 3) at least part of the cores of the site has been carefully prepared for the chipping process, as evidenced by a rib fragment on one of the cores and availability of secondary crested blades; 4) based on the characteristics of blades and cores it can be assumed that singleplatform chipping dominated, overhang trimming and abrasion were used to prepare the fracture zone
Summary
The cores are presented by two samples and one fragment. The first sample was found in the square L81a in the southern part of the hillfort. The tools are represented by two scrapers, one of the site are selected by core manufacturing, parts, which is combined with a burin on the truncation, or directly in pre-cores or cores; 3) at least part of the cores of the site has been carefully prepared for the chipping process, as evidenced by a rib fragment on one of the cores and availability of secondary crested blades; 4) based on the characteristics of blades and cores it can be assumed that singleplatform chipping dominated, overhang trimming and abrasion were used to prepare the fracture zone.
