These various points of view led to the development of methodological, terminological or scientific inconsistencies. It therefore became essential to take a critical look at the polysemous concept of the fracturing of osseous materials, because its consequences extend well beyond the epistemological sphere and sometimes directly impact interpretative models of prehistoric social realities. This volume pursues a twofold objective: a historiographical one—through state-of-the-art of research carried out on the transformation of osseous materials by fracturing and the fracturing techniques used; and a methodological one—through the revision of distinct analytical criteria and diagnostics used to differentiate between the modalities of transformation related to hard animal materials by using percussion. Lastly, this volume groups together a dozen contributions dealing with the exploitation of cervid antler, bone, ivory, shells, and wood based on case studies from a variety of contexts such as the Palaeolithic and Mesolithic in western and eastern Europe or the Holocene period in the southern tip of South America. »<o:p></o:p></span></em></p><p class=MsoNormal><br><b><span style='mso-fareast-language:FR'>Nejma GOUTAS<o:p></o:p></span></b></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='mso-fareast-language:FR'>Chargée de recherche <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='mso-fareast-language:FR'>Equipe Ethnologie Préhistorique – UMR 7041 (ArScan, Nanterre)<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div></body></html>
