Abstract

A stratified open-air site near Hadera, Israel, was excavated in the spring of 1973, yielding a vast quantity of Kebaran stone tools and abundant faunal remains. The site stood in the centre of the broad coastal plain which existed during the period of lower sea levels 15 000 years ago. The fauna recovered includes both unexploited species indicating the local environment and the remains of ungulate herd animals which formed the basis of the epi-palaeolithic economy. The second section of the article examines the lithic technology of the site's inhabitants.
