摘要：In this paper we present the study of chipped stone picks. These instruments were employed to work rocks in several ways(working in quarries, excavating mine galleries and other enclosures, manufacturing tools, etc.). The artifacts were recoveredin the excavation of a quarry for the production of rotator milling stones (Montaña Quemada, Gran Canaria). In thequarries intensive productive processes were developed, where picks were submitted to strong mechanical and frictionalstresses, which caused frequent accidents requiring continuous repairs. These circumstances made it necessary to developa type of artifact with technical features that allowed reshaping and resharpening tasks in order to extend its active life. Acombination of morphotechnical and functional studies, along with the refitting results, have enabled us to reconstruct theirknapping and use strategies, showing a high level of skill. In addition, this analysis has involved defining, for the first time,the different categories of byproducts generated during the process of the configuration and reconfiguration of the picks.Their detailed description will make it possible to recognize them in other archaeological contexts.
