Zusammenfassung

We analyze a lithic ensemble formed by a blade flint core, two polished axes and two prisms of rock crystal that have a microbladelet¿made edge. Both the axes and the prisms are not infrequent elements in different archaeological contexts in the Duero basin from the Neolithic onwards. The core, on the other hand, is a strange element in this region, presenting a very interesting production process and a very special kind of flint that could be qualified as "honey¿coloured". The archaeological context of the finding remains unknown and therefore it is not possible to determine the character and significance o) this lithic ensemble.
