Industry of City II

Industry of City II
6532

The industries of City II differ from those of City I by the production of light, highly regular blades, produced in a standing position using a chest crutch or, more rarely, by indirect percussion. This debitage reflects the technical traditions of Lower Mesopotamia since at least the 5th millennium.

Sites B and P/Northern gate sector (City II).
