The implements are fashioned out of stones of the siliceous group and are characterized by general techno-typological features of blade and burin tradition. In the collection, besides a good number of burins and tools made on blades, non-edged tools like points, borers and notched blades are noteworthy. On general typo-technological considerations the Shorapur industry reveals an inclination towards the earlier tradition and seems to lack the true Upper Palaeolithic refinement. - [Previous: v1.c9.s4.26](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.ghosh-1989.v1.c9.s4.26) - [Next: v1.c9.s4.28](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.ghosh-1989.v1.c9.s4.28) - [Up: v1.c9.s4](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.ghosh-1989.v1.c9.s4) ## Cites (1) - [Salvadgi](https://indike.org/pramana/inp.site.salvadgi) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.ghosh-1989.v1.c9.s4.27](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.ghosh-1989.v1.c9.s4.27) · Pramāṇa
