| Description of Building/ Structure/Site
इमारत/संरचना/स्थल का विवरण |
A site, locally known as Nallagundlu, approximately 2 km. east of Renigunta, proved to be a workshop rich in implements of both the industries. Scraping of the section here revealed that the blade- and burin-industry was older than the Late Stone Age, since it occurred exclusively, 20 cm. below the latter, and the mixed nature of the two industries on the surface was probably because of subesquent occupation of the site by the Late Stone Age folk. Since this site is situated on a sloping plane towards a feeder, every monsoonal rain, which washes away the silt, brings about either the movement of the tools or tool-sinking, resulting in their mix-up. The blade-and burin-industry comprised choppers made on thick flakes and cores side-and terminal-scrapers on flake and blade awl points backed tools blades, points and lunates and a variety of burins made on thick blades and spilt-flulted cores. Long parallel-sided blades were quite common, some of them exhibited signs of utilzation without traces of retouch. Besides, two broken mace-heads were also found. |
