| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Standard patterns of lithic use-wear formation were re-investigated and identification criteria for microwear traces were published in English. Experimental data bases of microflaking scar patterns and micro-polish images were scrutinized for global cross cultural methodology of functional determination of stone tool use. Accumulated results of experimental use-wear data by the TUMRT (Tohoku University Microwear Research Team) were compiled and publicized. In order to evaluate lithic use-wear patterns in conjunction with site structure analysis, excavations of the Upper Paleolithic sites in Yamagata Prefecture were conducted.
