In this contribution we present the results of a detailed technological analysis of Late Middle Palaeolithic lithic assemblage from Peña Miel site, which are located between Iberian plateau and Ebro valley. The study of the lithic assemblages allow us to discuss about the last technological features of Neanderthals populations. Applying an integral lithic analysis approach we can address its technological variability in relation to raw materials, specially quartzite, knapping methods and tooling. The results show how the dominant use of the discoid strategy allows the systematic exploitation of resistant materials to obtain immediate blanks with a great functional potential.
