Аннотация

The paper presents the results of the use-wear analysis of burins and burin spalls from a small hearth cluster in the northwestern section of the main cultural layer at the Kamennaya Balka II site, one of the key Upper Palaeolithic sites in the Northern Black Sea region. The use-wear analysis revealed and showed wear-traces in detail, enabled a functional attribution of some burins and burin spalls. A series of archaeological experiments was made to confirm the findings obtained from the study of archaeological materials. Use-wear analysis of the burins from the northwestern section of the site was conducted for the first time; and the studies in flint products of this category will be continued.
