Flint materials from north and east of the arch of the Carpathians are also present in the Middle and Late Upper Palaeolithic record of Hungary, especially in Gravettian and Epigravettian assemblages. Distant raw materials are often indicative of connections between remote areas. The Hungarian archaeological record shows that from ca. 28 to 13 k years BP there is decrease in the proportions of distant flints at the Last Glacial Maximum. The highest ratio of distant materials appears after the withdrawal of the ice sheet between 17 and 13 k years BP. Therefore climatic conditions seem to have influenced distant connections. Connections could have been direct, and the distant flints in the archaeological assemblage represents an adherence to high quality materials.
