The article focuses on a summary of the studies on the Late Palaeolithic assemblages of the Swiderian culture with so called Mazovian double platform cores. The author made an attempt to understand the above-mentioned technology as a part of current thinking in technological studies. The author’s reflection was made according to the Polish tradition of the studies of the production process as a part of R. Schild’s dynamic technological classification, itself based on S. Krukowski’s scientific achievements. The author’s intention was that current studies were a post-processual variant of so-called “in depth reading” based on a procedure of studying concept, methods and techniques. Products of the idealized concept of the core shaping process were compared to sequences of products that were made during correcting and repairing a surface. As a result, a dynamic picture was obtained of the interactions between changes in the angles and shape of the surface of the worked stone, as well as the producer’s actions necessary to make blades that have specific features. Conducted studies helped in formulating a list of the product categories that arise during the formation of surface shape and that favour obtaining straight blades with pointed butts and sharp tips. The main element of the suggested idea of classification is a division of the lithic core products into predetermining and predetermined. These terms are derived from semiology studies and they form the concept basis for future studies of specific assemblages of the artefacts. The conducted research provided an explanation for the presence of the large amount of blades in the Late Palaeolithic working sites. Blade production should be perceived not only as solely an utilitarian activity related to tool production. This issue requires further study as a part of the current thinking as well as in terms of the communication process and semiology.
