The term "Azilian" refers to a culture and tool industry that existed in Western Europe during the Late Palaeolithic period, around 12,000 years ago. However, there are several other terms that can be used to refer to this culture, such as "Tardenoisian" in France, "Cantabrian" in Spain, and "Final Mesolithic" in other parts of Europe. These terms all describe the same time and culture, but are named differently based on the specific region they are referring to. Understanding these synonyms can help researchers and historians better understand the cultural and technological developments of this period in different areas of Europe.
