Boukoulian, Netherlands, c. 400,000 BP / f)bouk4

More Boukoul core and flake artifacts. Several show possible utilization. A full report on the Boukoulian is given in Van Es, J. and Franssen, C.J.H. (1989). Een vroege microkern-traditie van de Peelhorst het Boukoulien. Archaeologische Berichten 19:6-25;93-133. Elst, NL.

Van Es and J. E. Musch suggest that 4b-7 might be called a cleaver if it were larger; also 4b-4, 5, and 6.
