The pure _early Aurignacian_ industry is seen in the regions of Dordogne and the Pyrenees in the layers of Chatelperron, Germolles, Roche au Loup, Haurets, and Gargas. The cave of Gudenushöhle, near Krems, in Lower Austria, exhibits a very primitive phase of the early Aurignacian. Here numerous small flints were found, resembling those found at Brive by the Abbés Bardon and Bouyssonie; similar microliths are also found at Pair-non-Pair, Gironde, at various stations in Dordogne, and at the Grottes de Grimaldi, on the Riviera, in layers of corresponding age. The chief invention of this stage is the 'Chatelperron point' (Fig. 149), a direct development from the curved point of the Abri Audit (Fig. 151) and a dominant type of the early Aurignacian culture. Small almond-shaped 'coups de poing' are still met with at Chatelperron and a few other localities, but Breuil suggests that these may not be real examples of Aurignacian industry but implements carried off from older stations. The use of elongated flakes is another feature of this early industry, but the retouch of the edges cannot compare with the fine 'grooved retouch' of the middle Aurignacian; as yet the flakes are thick and large. Many of the scrapers are 'keeled' (_grattoirs carénés_). An entirely new implement appears in addition to the triangular and elongate flakes of flint shaped into points and scrapers of forms; this is the primitive graving-tool, or _burin_, which at first is quite rare, but which we know was designed by the Crô-Magnon artists for their early engravings on stone (Fig. 149). _Art Implements._ _Microlithique_, microlith. [AO]_Burin_, graver. _Ciseau_, chisel. [AO]_Gravette_, etching tool (first appearance). _New Industrial Implements._ _Pointe_, point (leaf-shaped). [AO]_Grattoir caréné_, keeled scraper. _Perçoir_, drill, borer. [AO]curved (first appearance). _Couteau_, knife, blade. [AO]curved-in edges. _Poinçon_, awl (bone). _New Implements of War and Chase._ _Pointe à cran_, shouldered point (stone). _Pointe de sagaie_, javelin point (bone). A fourth highly distinctive feature of the early Aurignacian is the use of a variety of implements of bone and horn consisting chiefly of javelin points and drills and of coarse, spatula-like tools.
