A New Approach to the Study of Flaking Sequence Integrity Based on the Chagyrskaya Cave Assemblage, Northwestern Altai

This paper presents a new approach to assessing the integrity of flaking sequences at Paleolithic sites. It combines experimental modeling with subsequent attribute analysis of the archaeological collection. The method is based on changes in the proportion of various technical spalls at different stages of core and bifacial reduction, as well as changes in the sizes of cortical flakes. This methodology was applied to reconstruct the strategy of the use of lithic raw material by late Neanderthals of the Altai, on the basis of the Chagyrskaya Cave assemblage. The study has shown that the most common method, using the proportion of cortical spalls, is not universal, and has limitations due to the structure of lithic industry and the specificity of raw material. When pebbles and boulders of various sizes are used, as in the assemblage from layer 6c/2 of Chagyrskaya Cave, a high proportion of cortical spalls can result from the production of bifacial tools at the site. The study demonstrates that the first stage in core reduction occurred outside the cave. The high proportion of cortical spalls in the assemblage is due to the fact that bifaces were manufactured in situ, whereas tools on cortical flakes and cortical tool blanks had been transported to the site. The study reveals a connection of various technical spalls with stages in core and biface flaking sequences, and their number is evaluated in the cases of complete versus reduced flaking cycles.

Usury-Free Capital through Sharia Fintech

Sharia fintech (Financial Technology) is an important alternative to overcome the problem of usury prohibited by Islamic law. Therefore, this study aimed to analyze Sharia fintech as a solution for capital without usury based on the perspectives of four madhhabs, namely Hanafi, Maliki, al-Shafi'i, and Hanbali. A qualitative study was conducted with a comparative Islamic law method. Empirical data were collected from classical fiqh literature and contemporary studies related to fintech and usury. The collected data were analyzed through the stages of reduction, presentation, editing, and drawing conclusions from tracing the suitability of Sharia fintech with the principles held by each school. The results showed that there was significant difference between the four schools in interpreting whether Sharia fintech was truly free from usury. The Hanafi and Hanbali madhhabs were more careful in accepting the Sharia fintech model because of the potential for hidden usury elements. However, the Maliki and al-Shafi'i madhhabs were more open, provided that fintech contracts adhere to Sharia principles. The originality of this study was in the comprehensive and simultaneous analysis of the four madhhabs perspectives, which has not been widely investigated in the context of Sharia fintech. The implications of this study include the importance of stricter regulation to ensure full compliance with Sharia principles. Furthermore, this study contributed to financial institutions and regulators in developing Sharia fintech products that were more inclusive and in accordance with the provisions of various madhhabs. More opportunities were also opened for further studies on the implementation of Sharia fintech in multiple countries with different madhhab backgrounds.
