Steven A. Rosen's Lithics After the Stone Age is the first in-depth analysis of post-Stone-Age tools.

For lithics specialists of all geographical regions, he offers insightful interpretive essays on the organization of production and distribution, tool function, style, and the complex relationship between lithic and metal technology. Over 100 illustrations.
