Abstract
AbstractPostdeposition issues are one of the most important factors that must be considered during study of all archaeological osseous artefacts, especially if our analysis involves technological or use‐wear traces. In order to better understand the possible changes on the worked, polished surfaces of antler tools resulting from the latter being deposited in peat environment, an experiment was conducted, in which experimentally made antler tools were deposited inside a container with humid peat for a period of 3 months. The results of the study provide numerous interesting observations and information on the state of preservation of various kinds of wear traces and emphasise the need for further in‐depth research in this regard.
