dc.description.abstractThe present study is a technological re-analysis of the late-glacial extant collection from Borneck-Ost, Ahrensburgian tunnel valley, Germany. The site is attributed to the Federmesser culture (12 000 \--- 10 800 cal BC), and has figured in the Late Glacial research canon because remains of a "spectacle-shaped" tent were identified there (Rust 1958). The focus of this study is to determine if the previous interpretation of Borneck-Ost is reliable according to modern archaeological practice. Using a \textit{chaîne opératoire} as the methodological framework, the lithic material from the site has been technologically re-analysed. Refitting has supplied additional information. A source-critical perspective on the re-analysis of extant collections is imperative, since these were studied according to a different analytical paradigm. In addition to the procedural aspect of the re-analysis, new information on knapping techniques is discussed. New and revised results and interpretations for the Federmesser site Borneck-Ost will be presented.eng
