 The discovery of Aschulian tools at the Berench de la Boella site in Tarragona, Spain, provides evidence of the earliest occurrence of the Aschulian culture in Europe. These tools include choppers, picks, knives and cleavers, all of which indicate a basic heavy-duty component obtained through simple shaping sequences combined with more elaborate tools made on various large blanks. The bifacial and bilateral shapings have not yet been documented, but the current specific tool assemblage suggests that the Aschulian technology was present in Europe during the late early Pleistocene period. This finding adds significant insight to the debate regarding the technological variability of the early Pleistocene hominin occupation of the continent.
