作为史前人类生计行为的重要遗存之一，石制工具是石器工业的果实，包含了两个既相互关联又彼此独立的特性。一方面，它在毛坯生产和工具加工阶段被打制者赋予了预设性的功能和使用方式；另一方面，

A Paleolithic stone tool is a technical object bearing two interrelated but independent attributes;one is technically predetermined function and mode of functioning,corresponding to blanks production and tools confectioning in chai^ne opératoire and the other is actual function and use-pattern,corresponding to tools utilization.Given that much attention was focused on the second issue,the French prehistorians represented by Eric Boi^da proposed new techno-functional method to explore the first one.This method focuses on ＂tools confectioning＂ of chai^ne opératoire.By synthesizing from a whole assemblage the mechanism that resolves the process of tools manufacture and by exploring all technical characters that are integrated into a cutting-edge,techno-functional method enables us to understand technically predetermined function and mode of functioning of tools and to reconstruct the original intention of the stone tool makers.This paper introduced the techno-functional method for the first time to Chinese Paleolithic researchers and applied it to the lithic industry of the Guanyindong Site.It was shown that this method may contribute to revealing the variability of predetermined function and mode of functioning of tools and shed new insights to our comprehension of prehistoric human＇s technical cognition and of their technical behaviors.
