Summary/Abstract: The half of the raw material knapped in the open air site of Zăbrani dated in the Last Early Glacial is represented by the quartzite in spite of the presence of other raw materials. The majority of the flake-tools are in quartzite. The analysis of the reducing sequences according to the different raw materials gives informations concerning the use of the quartzite (debitage, blanks, end-products).
