Abstract
The paper describes four decorated and/or utilized pebbles, coming from Grotta della Ferrovia (central Italy), that go back to the final Epigravettian (11,700+-200 BP) . These pieces are the archaelogical subject selected to illustrate the connection between the artistic activities and the daily life in the Upper Palaeolithic.The stylistic analyses (D.Zampetti), the use-wear analyses (C.Lemorini) and the technological and experimental observations (M.Massussi) show that these pieces were used and conceived both as multifunctional tools both as symbolic media.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
