title = "Chrono-cultural Considerations of Middle Paleolithic Occurrences at Manot Cave (Western Galilee), Israel",
abstract = "Manot Cave is situated within the Levantine Mediterranean region. The site has an extensive Upper Paleolithic sequence, also manifesting the presence of a Middle Paleolithic occupation. This study will present the Middle Paleolithic assemblage from the cave. One of the Levallois centripetal cores from the assemblage exhibits, what seems to be non- utilitarian engravings on its cortex covered dorsal face. These incisions were performed prior to the last removals from the flaking surface. The Levallois techno-typological traits of the artifacts indicate their resemblance to other mid-late Middle Paleolithic techno-complexes present in the region.",
