ABSTRACT
The Cypriot threshing sledge supported one of the last flintknapping Industries around the Mediteranean. Interviews with a former athkiajas (knapper) and others depict a simple, efficient, and highly specialized knapping technology, which was part of a complex of traditional agricultural practices. Within this Industry can be seen temporal, regional, and individual Variation, which is now difficult to document. The knapping and other crafts involved were also performed at several levels of specialization.
