Zur räumlichen Verteilung von Dechselklingen aus Aktinolith- Hornblendeschiefer in der Linearbandkeramik

Abstract

Adze blades are found in settlements and burial sites of the Linear Pottery  Culture. Some of these blades are made of the raw material actinolite- hornblende schist (AHS). Based on the percentage of blades made of AHS found on each site a test of autocorrelation and interpolation is applied to analyse the  spatial distribution of this raw material. For measuring the connection between  the provision of settelments and burial sites with AHS a rank correlation  coefficient is calculated. These analyses provide means to characterize the exchange of AHS.
