Abstract

Ten-year-long investigations of the Starčevo culture settlement at Galovo in Slavonski Brod yielded a large quantity of stone finds, which, in addition to ceramic finds make up the bulk of the movable inventory. This paper presents the stone finds discovered in the 2007 investigations in pit house SU 291. Taking into consideration the quantity of chipped stone artifacts, particularly the many cores as well as flakes and blades with cortex, it can be assumed that the structure served as a working pit house. The focus is placed on the chipped stone industry, with the presentation of the technological and typological analysis of the artifacts. The pit house yielded four fragments of polished stone tools, a whetstone for bone awls and numerous amorphous fragments of grindstone.
