The tools and the largest part of the flakes found in the Palaeolithic layer of the Plugged Cave are made of flint. Among the flakes only a few specimens made of hard sand-stone have been encountered. The color of the flint used in the manufacture of the tools and the color of the patina are variable. The cause of this should be sought rather in that the Palaeolithic inhabitants of the Plugged Cave have generally used pebbles of flint instead of natural nodules.
