This paper shows the study of a series of bone artefacts from a Late Neolithic site in the south of the Iberian Peninsula. This work intends to complete the morphological and metric descriptions using a technological approach (traceological method and functional perspective). The relationship between this set of bone tools and the pottery works was well-established according to (1st) traceological observation, (2nd) the results from experimental reproduction (manufacture and use principally), and (3rd) the comparison between the morphology of certain pieces (curved plates) and the ceramic one, associated in the same stratigraphic level. The particular features of the bone industry from El Toro Cave permitted us the identification of bone implements pertaining to the kit or case of instruments which prehistoric man needed for the manufacture of ceramic vases.
