To say that tools are "Unaltered by typology" strictly means that typology has not altered them.
"Unaltered in terms of typology" means that the typology of the tools has not changed (they may have changed in other ways). I'm assuming this is what you mean.
I have certainly heard people use the first when they mean the second, but if you want to be clear use the second when you mean it.

Perhaps "unaffected by" or "independent of" would work?
Hi ak84, thanks for your contribution. Both alternatives would work, but this isn't what the question asked. If you edit your question to address whether by is ok and if in terms of is better and explain why, with references, you can avoid your answer being deleted (the system has flagged it as "low-quality because of its length and content").
