The Stránská skála-type chert is a local Moravian chert of Jurassic age, which is available only within a limited area restricted to the Stránská skála rock outcrop and secondary sources in nearby gravels. As this raw material has been well-studied petrographically, its distribution is easy to trace. Its use and proportions within individual archaeological assemblages in particular vary over time – ranging from the dominant raw material during several chrono-cultural periods to a complete absence of this raw material in other periods. Periods of significant use include the Initial and Early Upper Palaeolithic, Late Neolithic and Early Eneolithic. Less pronounced evidence of distribution is also known from the Late/ Final Eneolithic and from the Early Bronze Age. Periods of no use include the Middle to Late Upper Palaeolithic, Early – Middle Neolithic and Middle Eneolithic. This raw material was mostly used locally with a limited distribution – the maximum extent of its occurrence is a few tens of kilometres from the source outcrop. The Stránská skála-type chert should be accepted as a fossile directeur sensu lato thanks to its easy determination and the isolation of the outcrop in combination with the techno-typological analysis.

In the article, Eastern and Central European Last Glacial Maximum (LGM) specific Epiaurignacian industry with Sagaidak-Muralovka-type microliths (EASMM) is discussed in terms of its lithic artefact fossil types. The proposed fossil types are carinated atypical end scraper-cores and Sagaidak-Muralovka type microliths. These two lithic artefact types with some other techno-typological features of the considering EASMM industry type make it distinct within the LGM Early Late UP archaeological context in both Eastern and Central Europe.

In the article a series of Middle Aurignacian in situ sites and surface loci situated in the Carpathian Basin of the Eastern Central Europe is analysed using industrial and geochronological criteria recently developed for the respective Middle Aurignacian materials in Southwestern France. As a result, there were not only recognized the respective materials for the Carpathian Basin but were also identified both common and specific techno-typological features for taken together Pan-European Middle Aurignacian materials. Geochronologically, the Carpathian Basin’s sites (starting from GI -8a, ca. 36,300 cal. BP) are a little younger of the French materials (GI -8c, ca. 37,900 – 37,500 cal. BP). The realized study also demonstrated a possible series of various site types for Middle Aurignacian settlement pattern observations in the Carpathian Basin. The resulting analyses also allowed us to see on the new data and knowledge levels a basic Middle Aurignacian human dispersal from Europe into the East Mediterranean Levant.
