Kebaran

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Kebarans were the first anatomically modern humans to live in the eastern Mediterranean area (c. 18,000 to 10,000 BCE). They were a highly mobile nomadic people of hunters and gatherers in the Levant and Sinai areas who utilized microlithic tools.

The Kebaran were also characterized by small, geometric microliths, and were thought to lack the specialized grinders and pounders found in later Near Eastern cultures.

The Kebaran were thought to practice dispersal to upland environments in the summer, and aggregation in caves and rockshelters near lowland lakes in the winter. This diversity of environments may be the reason for the variety of tools found in the toolkits.

Being situated in the Terminal Pleistocene, the Kebaran is classified as an Epipalaeolithic society.
