Handbook of Paleolithic Typology
Lower and Middle Paleolithic of Europe
André Debénath and Harold L. Dibble

This book presents the major tool types of European Lower and Middle Paleolithic. Building on the typelist of the late François Bordes, with many forms that have been recognized since, it presents working definitions of the types with illustrations and discussions of the variability inherent to lithic typologies.The authors combine classic typological views with current notions of lithic typological variation. This handbook represents not only an important reference source for gaining a practical understanding of how Lower and Middle Paleolithic typology is applied, but of the nature of lithic variability in other kinds of assemblages as well.
