Abstract

Starch analysis on stone tools found from Palaeolithic sites in Iwata city (central Japan) revealed starch grains in various forms. Starch from one of the tools apparently seems to have derived from glue used to fit the tools. Before proceeding to the identification of starch grains, careful considerations of the methods of past studies and storage conditions of the stone tools are also needed.
