v1.c13.9

On the basis of the available collection, a sequence of three industries is postulated: (i) an earlier Teri industry consisting of flakes and core tools; (ii) a later—the main—Teri industry, similar to the former, but including blades and geometric forms; (iii) a Neolithic blade industry, often accompanied with stone axes. The first two are generally made on quartz and chert and are heavily stained with red hydrated ferric oxide.
