- W3132763034 abstract "Slightly retrograded rocks for edge-ground tool manufacture were used in two different supply systems during recent European prehistory. Mechanical properties of five of these rock types were tested to determine if the most exploited and circulated materials were also the most adequate ones. A series of mechanical tests were chosen to characterize their hardness, elasticity, resistance to friction, and Charpy impact toughness. The results were compared with petrographic variables (mineralogical composition, density, homogeneity, grain size, anisotropy, and presence of retrogression). Subsequent correlations between the tested mechanical properties confirm that density is a good proxy to estimate hardness, elasticity, and resistance to friction of the given rocks. It emerged that the amphibolic hornfels (MJH) most used in Neolithic Central Europe and circulated over large distances was harder than most other tested rocks and compositionally more homogeneous. On a broader European scale, however, MJH is not superior in quality to Iberian gabbros. Both rocks show much poorer mechanical qualities than Alpine high-pressure meta-ophiolites, which were largely ignored by the Early Neolithic populations of Central Europe. Analogies from the Iberian Peninsula also indicate that rocks comparable in quality to MJH, and transformed into Neolithic axe heads, only circulated in an area a few hundred kilometers from their sources. Long-distance transport of MJH is thus only partially explained by its mechanical qualities and rather reflects a wide and well-functioning social and economic network established over large parts of Central Europe which has no parallels in the European Neolithic. • No parallels for the long-distance transport of MJH have been found in the European Early Neolithic. • The use of MJH during LBK was not based on its mechanical features but on social/political factors. • Rocks used for Neolithic axe head manufacture were usually more elastic and less hard than knapped stone materials (flints). • Density is a good proxy for the suitability of fine-grained rocks for axe head manufacture. • Amphibolic hornfels (MJH) used for axe head manufacture is inferior in quality to several Alpine high-pressure rocks." @default.
