22 VIOLA T. DOBOSI the Alpine-Carpathian Karst —Moustérian population, but supposing a W —E migration, they would be younger, in a sense "prolonged". 4 8 In summarizing we can state that we accord with M. Gábori: the difference between the "charentien d'Europe sud-oriental" and the "industrie du type Tata" has at best a facies value. 4 9 We have to underline, though, that on ground of the more throrough study of the Tata chip material (and taking out the less typical but characteristic pebble splits) and the insufficiency of the Csákvár and Kiskevély material the two NW-Transdanubian cultural circles seem to come closer. There is a lose bond (primarily on the ground of an affinity of the settlement geography and the working of the pebbles) among them and a part of the Slova­kian places of travertine occurrence and the Rumanian and Yougoslavian caves. A standing epithet of the Tata industry is that "its evolution was closed incom­plete". This is acceptable only in the case if we regard the microlitization as the only way of an inner development of the industry. The population could not progress in this direction, but we can assume another direction: the evolution of society can have —similarly to certain biological regularities —some irreversible components. (Maybe the tendency for the change of an average size is another general regularity —but this is to be proven.) IV Technological cbaracteristicals of the l ata industry a) Raw material Vértes separated the "Silex" and the "Kiesel". 5" This separation is motivated by the fact that a part of the raw material shows an affinity to the silex material of the findplaces on the Kálvária Hill, quite close to the site, as well as to those of several spots in the Gerecse. It is contradicted, though, by the observation that the majority of the tools has measures that fit into the measure limits of the medium pebbles even in the case when during the working process they lost the pebble crust over their whole surface. From the point of view of working techniques and the ratio within the implement complex they can be fused. Through the re-valuation of the material of the Skoflek bequest and the chips of the previous excavations the ratio of the employment of silex and quartz­ite is somewhat modified. (In the chip material the proportion of the quartzite is much bigger than among the finished implements: the quartzite of a rougher texture is either worked with a greater difficulty, or else the working is recognized more difficultly.) 5 1 The ratio of the raw material, according the re-valuation, is as follows: 4 N Ibid.; Id., INQUA VII Congress (Moscow 1965) 4 9 Gábori, M., Les civilisations... 162. 5 0 Vértes, L. et al., Tata. 176. л | Distribution of the chips according to raw material: Inv.
