The Linear Pottery cemetery of Kleinhadersdorf dates from the second half of the 6th millennium BC and is the best-known and largest Early Neolithic burial site in Austria. The chapter gives a complete processing of the chipped stone artifacts of the old rescue excavations by Josef Bayer and Viktor Lebzelter in 1931, as well as those of the systematic investigations of the Neolithic cemetery under the direction of Johannes-Wolfgang Neugebauer and Christine Neugebauer-Maresch between 1987 and 1991. Total of 24 artifacts was studied, 15 as trapeze like forms. Although local raw material was available, only regional and long distance raw materials were used: the Krumlovský Les chert from the South Moravia, Krakow Jurassic flint, and radiolarites the Bakony Mountains (type Szentgál). |
