==Hoabinhian stone artifact technology== An experimental Hoabinhian assemblage was created and analyzed by Marwick (2008), which identified variables and methods that are the most useful in analyzing Hoabinhian assemblages. In particular he advocated for the use of a new method involving the dorsal cortex location of a flake. This method in particular was found to be especially useful in determining reduction intensity and may prove instrumental in answering broader archaeological questions involving subsistence, geographic range, and domestication.<ref name="Marwick 2008 1189β1200">{{cite journal|last=Marwick|first=Ben|date=2008 |title=What attributes are important for the measurement of assemblage reduction intensity?

In theory, high frequencies of pre-processing should reflect logistical mobility strategy. However, at Tham Lod, a high frequencies of pre-processing (CPM) but a residential mobility strategy (ODM) and a low intensity of occupation (PCM) was observed: We can see an internal conflict between models. A multiple optima model is proposed to explain this contradictory result. Multiple optima model allows more than one optimal scenario and is valid to explain high time-devoting lithic technology (i.e., pre-processing of lithic) and more residential mobility strategy in the same time.<ref>{{cite journal |last1=Marwick |first1=Ben |title=Multiple Optima in Hoabinhian flaked stone artefact palaeoeconomics and palaeoecology at two archaeological sites in Northwest Thailand |journal=Journal of Anthropological Archaeology |date=December 2013 |volume=32 |issue=4 |pages=553β564 |doi=10.1016/j.jaa.2013.08.004 |doi-access=free |url=https://ro.uow.edu.au/articles/journal_contribution/Multiple_Optima_in_Hoabinhian_flaked_stone_artefact_palaeoeconomics_and_palaeoecology_at_two_archaeological_sites_in_Northwest_Thailand/27744585/1/files/50503440.pdf }}</ref>
