What is Constraints on Levallois Core Technology about?

This document presents a mathematical model of Levallois core technology. The model aims to assess the efficiency and productivity of Levallois cores compared to deviations from the ideal Levallois geometry. The results suggest that Levallois cores minimize raw material waste while maximizing the number of usable tool blanks and amount of cutting edge produced. Deviations significantly reduce both efficiency and productivity. This implicates mechanical and economic constraints as factors underlying the broa
