I have a question concerning usage of microliths in West European
microlithic cultures.
It is clear why gatherers of wild cereals (and later cultivators of
domesticated cereals) needed microliths - they inserted them into sickles.
But I guess that the way of life in West European Mesolithic societies was
quite different - they were individual hunters, fishermen and sea gatherers.
How did they use microliths?
Particularly, is it possible to use microliths in arrows instead of
classical arrowheads?
