AbstractBrief abstract written by HRAF anthropologists who have done the subject indexing for the document
Ronen and Lechevallier describe their excavations and the Natufian component at the site of Hatula in Israel. (The site has a Natufian and a Neolithic component.) This site is unusual in that it appears to be a hunting site where people stayed only a short time to hunt gazelle and make stone and bone tools during the Natufian.
