Abstract

The Solutrean “culture” of France should be separated in two clearly distinct elements. (1) The “Proto-Solutrean” and the “early” Solutrean are linked to late phases of the Gravettian of the northern plains. (2) The “middle and late” Solutrean seems to have originated in Spain. A movement from North Africa, in the most arid phase, constitutes the most likely hypothesis to explain this expansion.
