In the last few years, there have been studies showing that the issue of Late Upper Palaeolithic (LUP) industries located in and around Moravia (Czech Republic) are much more complex than previously thought. Focusing on Epigravettian/Epiaurignacian and Magdalenian, one of the possible solutions is the detailed study of knapping technology. Initial studies indicated that Epigravettian units can be distinguished from the Magdalenian collections. By applying the study of knapping technology to unclear collections, their culture can be determined to some extent, if it is not demonstrated in another clearer way. Analogies indicate that the knapping technology defined for Moravian LUP units may have a wider regional validity.
