Cortex is often used as an indicator of core reduction and transport, but current measures to evaluate the observed amount of cortex in a lithic assemblage with what might be expected under particular conditions are still ambiguous. The purpose of the present study is to develop and evaluate an alternative method based on solid geometry. This method is evaluated with an experimentally produced assemblage, and implications of its application to archaeological assemblages are presented and discussed. La corteza se utiliza a menudo como indicador de la reduccion del nucleo y el transporte de litica. Sin embargo, las medidas actuales para evaluar la cantidad de corteza en un conjunto litico contra lo que se pudiera esperar bajo ciertas condiciones siguen siendo ambiguas. El proposito del presente estudio es desarrollar y evaluar un metodo alternativo basado en geometria solida. Este metodo se evalua con un ensamble producido experimentalmente. Las implicaciones de su uso en conjuntos arqueologicos se presentan y se discuten.
Cortex has been used as an indicator of core reduction for a long time (e.g., Andrefsky 1998; Blades 2001; Cowan 1999; Draper and Lothson 1990; Johnson 1989; Martin 1907; Morrow [...]
