Results of a second lithic trampling experiment – some questions and a few answers

Following the interesting results of a trampling experiment done in 2016, a new trampling experiment was devised with a slightly altered methodology. The 2016 experiment consisted of 40 pieces of experimentally made lithic artifacts which were buried 15 cm deep on the heavily trodden path, trampled for 7 months, then carefully excavated, washed, and analyzed using a system developed by P. Villa and M. Soressi. (Vila and Soressi 2000). This year’s experiment was done by trampling the artifacts placed on the surface in a 30-minute duration. The methodology and results of the experiment will be presented at this conference.
