| In later years, microlithic blades and other structures were found near the site. |
|
| No one would accuse dentists of using microlithic points on our carious lesions today. |
|
| It contains very highly evolved flake implements of Levallois type and, in its later phases, a definite microlithic industry. |
|
| In the post-Gamblian dry phase, microlithic tools appear for the first time in an assemblage known as the Magosian. |
|
| A series of later Stone Age microlithic industries found widely across southern Africa and dating to the period 6000 bc through to ad 500 or later. |
|
| Although small drills and perforators are occasionally found in archaeological contexts at cal A.D.900-1050, such tools are typically not made from formal microlithic cores. |
|
| They contain one archaeological site consisting of a microlithic tool assemblage and a H. sapiens skeleton, both of which have an age of about 17,000 years. |
|
| This layer contained charcoal traces and a previously unknown microlithic flint tool industry characterized by crescent-shaped lunates. |
|
| While visually they look similar, the operational sequences for obtaining these microlithic bladelets are different. |
|
| In the final stages of the Middle Stone Age, known as the South African Magosian, microlithic elements appear, just as in the case of East Africa. |
|
| Flint inventories include some blades and microlithic tools evidencing blade industry. |
|
| Mafic igneous rocks with microlithic to intergranular texture are ubiquitous but less abundant than more felsic compositions. |
|
| In the Neolithic, the microlithic technology was replaced by a macrolithic technology, with an increased use of polished stone tools such as stone axes. |
|
| Dortch described prehistoric Kimberley backed points as thicker than bondi or other microlithic backed blades, and with backing retouch produced by direct percussion. |
|
| The flint assemblage is also typical of the Early Bronze Age, especially in microlithic lunates, the tabular scrapers, and the microlithic drills. |
