Beschreibung : Northern Africa, Sahara Desert, Neolithic period, ca. 6000 to 3500 BCE. A lovely example of a dark-green tool used for skinning and slicing, hand-knapped from flint into a thin ovoid form with uniformly sharp edges. During this time period, weather conditions called the Neolithic Subpluvial meant that the Sahara was a green, fertile landscape, cultures that produced rock art flourished during this time. The people who lived here had plentiful game to hunt and lived in a place with savannahs and woodlands in which they could maintain a sustainable hunter-gatherer lifestyle. These people produced some of the oldest pottery in the world and, from about 5000 BCE, had domesticated cattle, goats, and sheep.
