Interpolated density maps were used for exploring the patterns of artifact distributions of two archaeological workshop sites. Both workshops belong to the industry of the so-called Russian-Karelian (Eastern Karelian) type, and can be regarded mainly as production areas, and yet demonstrate considerable differences in the type and duration of activities that were taking place there. The first one was an area of intensive, various and recurring activities, and its use lasted at least several decades and probably more than one hundred years. The central part of them was full-cycle production of wood-chopping tools of stone en masse. Despite relatively long duration of the site use the main patterns of the spatial organization within the excavated area remained very similar testifying existence of a continuous tradition. The other one, to the contrary, is a single-event site. The excavated area was used as a knapping floor with two distinct clusters of debitage accumulation, where finishing of several half-made products took place just once. The differences between two sites that still functioned within the same tradition support our views concerning its complex logistical organization.
