Archaeopetrological approximation to the lithic procurement of the neolithic axes and adzes from Can Sadurní's cave (Begues, NE Iberian Peninsula)

Can Sadurní's cave, located in Begues (NE Iberian Peninsula), in the Baix Llobregat region, is an archaeological site with a wide stratigraphic sequence covering from the Epipaleolithic hunter-gatherers societies at the beginning of the Holocene to Roman times. During the excavations of the las...
