Manifestazioni (Parte inedite e analisi tecnologica dell'arte mobiliare di Grotta Paglicci (Rignano Garganico - Foggia)

Unpublished artistic evidences and technological analysis of the portable art of Paglicci cave (Rignano Garganico - Fog- gia) - Paglicci cave (Rignano Garganico), more than representing the only evidence of the italian Paleolithic wall painting, shows moreover an artistic production of exceptional importance, that offers a rich and articulated documentation about portable art. Excavations have brought to light numerous artistic objects, some of them coming from a precise stratigraphic position which ranges between Evolved Gravettian and Final Epigravettian. This study faces the technological analysis of the bone objects with naturalistic engravings, with an approach that allows to deepen what previously put in light, over the years, from Mezzena and Palma di Cesnola under the stylistic and chronological aspect. Particular attention has been placed in the reconstruction of the gestures (operative chain), in the search of eventual diversities in diachronic sense and in the ochre use modalities. © Museo delle Scienze, Trento 2012.
