SCHLÉDER, TS. & К. Т. BÍRÓ: PETROARCHEOLOGICAL STUDIES ON POLISHED STONE ARTEFACTS FROM BARANYA COUNTRY 83 Ge-Ce/r" b diagram Figure 7. Ce-Ce/Yb diagram of the basaltic samples compared to basalts from Carpathian Basin (EMBEY-ISZTIN 1993a, HARANGI et al. 1995). Key: 1. Basalt samples analysed from JPM, 2. Graz Basin , 3. Little Hungarian Plain, 4. Balaton Highlands, 5. Nógrád-Gömör basaltic unit, 6. Persány Mts., 7.Bánát region on, probably, the Nógrád-Gömör basalt occurrences was hypothesed by BÍRÓ (1992). H or nf els (sample 12) As far as petrographical features are concerned, sample 12 is very similar to the tools from SzarvaskôEndrôd archaeological site. Such tools are frequent in archaeological findings of Great Hungarian Plain (SZAKMÁNY, STARNINI, 1996) and Neolithic man probably used the hornfels of the Bánát contact (a hornfels occurence near Great Hungarian Plain) for tool manufacturing. We can reasonable suppose that the raw material of sample 12 possibly originates from Bánát. M etagab bro (sample 15) Based on petrographical features, the origin of the raw material is probably Papuk Mountains (PAMIC et al. 1988; PAMIC 1997) orRechnitz-Window (KOLLER, HOCK 1992). Basic metamagmatite (samples 6, 7,11 and 18) Based on petrographical features, these samples belong to the same metamagmatite sequence. The supposed provenace is Slavonian Mountains (PAMIC et al. 1988; PAMIC 1997).
