| My research focuses on lithic use-wear analysis. I apply an experimental and microscopic approach to the functional study of lithic artifacts. My previous work includes functional analysis of a late Lower Palaeolithic assemblage from the site of Schöningen in Lower Saxony, Germany. A current project encompasses a case study of lithic implements potentially used in the production of double-perforated ivory beads during the Aurignacian of Hohle Fels Cave in the Swabian Jura. |
