      About the Book

      English summary: Flint was the primary raw material used for tools until c. 4000 years ago. Its properties allow the production of very sharp edges, which made it essential in many activities related to craft and subsistence. The fact that flint tools have been used for a long period of time almost everywhere in the world makes them an important source of information in the study of prehistory. Several general questions about this material are of interest to archaeologists: where was the raw material obtained? How can we distinguish between man-made artefacts and natural pieces of flint? What techniques can be used to work flint, and how can we recognise them? How were the different tools used in an effective way? This book tries to answer all of these questions by describing the subsequent stages: acquisition of raw material, flint knapping techniques, recognition of pseudo-artefacts and geofacts, typology of common tool types found in northwestern Europe and discussion of the most effective way to use these tools. The book is richly illustrated with full colour figures. Dutch text. Dutch Description: Tot ca. 4000 jaar geleden had de mens vrijwel uitsluitend de beschikking over stenen werktuigen om zijn strijd om het bestaan succesvol te kunnen voeren. Vuursteen was zonder twijfel de meest geschikte, en daarmee meest gebruikte grondstof om gereedschappen van te vervaardigen. Het leverde vlijmscherpe werkkanten op. Door het veelvuldig gebruik van vuurstenen werktuigen en het feit dat ze gedurende duizenden jaren onveranderd in de bodem bewaard konden blijven, vormen ze een dankbaar onderwerp voor archeologisch onderzoek. Bij de vuurstenen objecten kan de archeoloog zich verschillende vragen stellen. Waar haalden onze voorouders bijvoorbeeld de geschikte vuursteen vandaan? Hoe zijn werktuigen te onderscheiden van natuurlijke stukken vuursteen en hoe werden ze vervaardigd? Hoe ontwikkelde hun vorm zich de loop van de millennia? Hoe werden ze precies gebruikt en hoe effectief waren ze eigenlijk? In dit boek zal getracht worden op al deze vragen een antwoord te geven.
