The present paper summarizes the state of research of the flint technology belonging to the Early Bronze Age in the Lesser Poland loessic areas. With the analyses of representative materials from the most important settlements, cemeteries and mines, an attempt has been made to verify the current identification criteria for the flint artefacts of the concerned period. The observations allow for the construction of a theoretical model which connects to the manufacturing of bifacial daggers and sickles as well as with the spezialization of their production. The fact that these tools were made continuously for several centuries, may be attributed to some special social mechanisms in which technology teachers played an important role. This model was based on selected conceptions of social psychology.

W niniejszym artykule zaawansowaną technologię krzemieniarską ukazano przez pryzmat definiowanych przezpsychologię społeczną zachowań konformistycznych, w szczególności specyficznych relacji nauczyciel–uczeń.Podkreślona została rola nauki w procesie wytwarzania narzędzi z dwustronną obróbką powierzchniową przezspołeczności zamieszkujące tereny Małopolski we wczesnej epoce brązu. Spojrzenie na krzemieniarstwo z perspektywynauk społecznych dało podstawę do zaproponowania koncepcji międzypokoleniowego przepływuwiedzy technologicznej w zakresie produkcji bifacjalnych płoszczy i sierpów.

This paper summarizes the findings from the research into modifications formed as a result of storing and transporting flint copies of arrowheads inside a leather quiver. The study was inspired by the fact that Late Neolithic and Early Bronze Age projectile points bear untypical microwear traces interpreted in many different ways in the literature on the subject. The aforementioned features (detected primarily in the uppermost parts of the artefacts) include: hide working polish as well as co-existing rounding and smoothing of the surface. With the aim of gaining a deeper insight into the subject, the authors conducted an experiment and performed a traceological analysis of arrowheads replicas. During the experimental phase, the microwear formation process was monitored using the microscopic equipment. As a result, distinctive traces on the tools were identified. This fact supported the hypothesis that leather quiver exerts its impact on the arrow points stored inside

Core-shaped forms are one of the most distinctive kinds of artefacts identified in Aurignacian assemblages. Classification of such pieces frequently causes difficulties, and the boundaries between certain types seem to be fluid and intuitive. The question whether to categorise those artefacts as tools or as cores is another unresolved issue. This leads to conflicting interpretations of morphologically and technologically identical lithics. The present paper investigates these topics, using the assemblage of core-shaped forms from the group of sites in Spadzista Street in Kraków as an example. The authors propose a standardised examination method, without dividing the artefacts into typological categories, tools or cores. Such an approach, combined with microwear analysis of the materials, confirms the hypothesis that the forms may have been used both as tools and as cores, and that their use was not always the same, but depended on the specific needs of their users/makers
