French term or phrase: industries à lamelles
"Sur le plan de la structure des stocks industriels, comme en ce qui concerne les modalités et stratégies de débitages, des variations considérables sont pourtant très perceptibles, regroupant des industries à lamelles (très proches de l’Ibéromaurusien, moins des ILST), des Capsiens supérieurs (sétifien ?), des Néolithiques de tradition capsienne et/ou méditerranéens. Ces remarques permettent d’alimenter de manière particulièrement productive l’interrogation sur les modalités de la néolithisation dans cette zone particulièrement importante pour la connaissance du peuplement du Maghreb préhistorique"
