Select a forum:
"The earliest materials present are the microliths and microburin from Interventions 5 and 8. These geometric forms all date to the later Mesolithic period. One of the microliths , from Intervention 5, is a narrow blade, retouched on both sides. It is narrow and almost rod-like suggesting a date of the very later or terminal Mesolithic. The contexts from which the microliths were recovered suggest that all these finds are residual."

What does residual mean in this context?
