Fig 6. Vertical distribution of diagnostic lithics in layers D and E of Grotta del Cavallo.

For carinated scrapers/cores, tools made on Aurignacian blades, and Dufour bladelets, only those illustrated in refs. [19,21,23] and whose typological classification is corroborated by the associated description have been counted. The numbers for lunates are drawn from p. 55 of ref. [23] and subsume the three items assigned to level E-II/I classified under the Laplacian categories Gm 2 (triangles) and Gm 6 (trapeze). Counts for “endscrapers” on lastrine (locally available thin plaques of siliceous limestone) are based on the text, figures and tables in refs. [21,23].
