Archaeometrical results related to Neolithic amphibolite stone implements from Northeast Hungary

28 amphibolite Neolithic polished stone implements deriving from different archaeological localities and cultures in Northeast Hungary (Borsod-Abaúj-Zemplén County) were archaeometrically analysed by mainly non-destructive methods (MS, EDS/SEM, PGAA). Bulk chemistry of the samples showing subalkali characteristics. The amphibolite polished stone tools were divided into two groups based on their mineral components and metamorphic evolution. A single Ca-amphibole approach was used to calculate peak P-T conditions to determine a thermobarometric model for the amphibolite implements. Data of the studied samples were compared to those of the nearest amphibolite outcrops in Gemericum, Veporicum, Tatricum and Zemplinikum (Slovakia). The Variscan P-T loop covered the thermobarometric data of the analysed stone implements and the amphibolite outcrops. The source areas are assumed to be these fields and/or the crossing riverbeds flowing through them to Borsod-Abaúj-Zemplén County, the archaeological collecting territory of the amphibolite stone axes
