Rietberg und Salzkotten-Thüle.
Anfang und Ende der Federmessergruppen in Westfalen

With contributions by Johanna A. A. Bos, Stephan M. Heidenreich, Alexandra Hilgers, Arie J. Kalis, Dirk Leder, Andreas Maier, Jutta Meurers-Balke, Jürgen Richter, Katsuhiro Sano and Burghart Schmidt

The sites of Rietberg in a bend of the River Ems and Salzkotten-Thüle west of Paderborn represent the earliest and latest phases of the Federmesser Culture (Azilian) in Westphalia.

Rietberg sites 1, 2, and 5 (excavated in 1974 and 1999–2000) are dated into the early Allerød around 14,000 calBP. Site 1 was the camp of a group of hunters and included a possible dwelling; site 2 contained a small concentration of artefacts which had been produced during a short stay for the repair of hunting weapons; site 5 consisted of several diffuse concentrations of artefacts in connection with pits for processing food.

Salzkotten-Thüle (discovered in 2001) had one main concentration of artefacts that might have represented a dwelling, as well as a small accumulation of finds that obviously is linked to several hearths. There is evidence for the dismembering of animals and working of hides. The place is considered a "residential camp" of a highly mobile group of hunters and foragers of the middle or late Allerød before 13,800 calBC.

On selected stone artefacts of both sites micro-wear analyses were carried out, to the result of hide and wood working and use as projectiles.
