Petrografia materialului litic descoperit la Bordușani - Popină în campaniile de cercetări arheologice 1995-1997
Petrographic Study Of Lithic Material Discovered At Borduşani-Popină During Archaeological Campaigns 1995-1997

Summary/Abstract: The lithic inventory (artifacts and rock fragments) discovered on the Eneolithic tell-type settlement Borduşani Popină during the 1995-1997 archaeological excavations represents several rock types: silicolith, limestone, marl, gritty limestone, sandstone, micro-conglomerate, green-schist, mica-schist, quartzite, dolerite and granodiorite. Most of these rock types crop out on large areas in Dobrogea, with potential source areas for the lithic material located as close as 10-20 km away from the settlement. However, for the igneous rocks the closest outcrops are located in North Dobrogea, at distances of minimum 70-80 km from the settlement.
