Title:

New results of investigations about the provenience of the raw material for heavy stone tools in the Linear Pottery Culture of Lower Austria

Description:

Lenneis, Eva

Abstract:

Mineralogical investigations for the heavy tools of two LBK settlements (Rosenburg, Mold) and one graveyard (Kleinhadersdorf) in Lower Austria showed a distinct choice of the raw materials for the tools, which seemed to be determined by their future function. The quality criteria for the adzes were especially high, amphibolite/foliated amphibolite was nearly exclusively used. With high probability this raw material came from the region of the Jizera Mountains (Jizerskéhory) in northern Bohemia, where the exploitation of stones as well as the production of toolshas been proven recently for the Linear Pottery culture (LBK). It was most astonishing to see thateven high‑quality quernstones were transported over long distances. Most of the grinding stonesof the Mold settlement and some of the Kleinhadersdorf graveyard are made of a special quartzsandstone, who’s nearest possible area of origin lies in Central Bohemia.
