Experimental Study on Heat Alteration of Palaeolithic Material: Preliminary Results from Shale in the Northeastern Region of Japan.

The article discusses the results of a study aiming to determine whether Palaeolithic toolmakers in northeastern Japan, specifically at the Ueno-A site, heat-treated rocks as part of the tool manufacturing process. The experiment involved heat alteration of shale samples and examination of artifacts...

      ab: The article discusses the results of a study aiming to determine whether Palaeolithic toolmakers in northeastern Japan, specifically at the Ueno-A site, heat-treated rocks as part of the tool manufacturing process. The experiment involved heat alteration of shale samples and examination of artifacts from the Ueno-A site which showed color alterations and fractures possibly caused by heat treatment. Specific topics include shale sources near the site and how heat treatment affects tool performance.
