Using mechanical experiments to study ground stone tool use: exploring the formation of percussive and grinding wear traces on limestone tools

Ground Stone Tools (GST) have been identified in several Levantine archaeological sites dating to the Middle Paleolithic. These tools, frequently made of limestone, are often interpreted based on their morphology and damage as having been used for knapping flint, and sometimes for breaking animal bo...
