N2  - The mineralogic-petrographical character of the raw materials of the Late Palaeolithic/Neolithic stone industries, collected at several open air-sites in the area of Jabal Nefusa, have been studied and the origin of the raw materials have been recognized. Two types of Upper Cretaceous (Nalut Formation) cherts (the coloured and the striped ones), used for the manufacture of implements, have been distinguished. They may be considered either local or short distance imported raw materials.
