Results of a Lithic Trampling Experiment and its Comparison to the Mujina Pećina Lithic Material

The aim of this paper is to present the results of a trampling experiment done in 2015/2016, its methodology and results, and the comparison to the results of the pseudo-retouch analysis done on lithic finds from the levels E1 and E2 of Mujina pećina. The experiment consisted of 40 pieces of experimentally made lithic artifacts which were buried 15 cm deep on a path in the vicinity of the Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences in Zagreb. After being in the sediment for 7 months, these lithic artifacts were then carefully excavated and analyzed using a system developed by P. Villa and M. Soressi (Villa and Soressi 2000).
