Descrizione : Northern Africa, Sahara Desert, Neolithic period, ca. 6000 to 3500 BCE. A remarkable piece of ancient craftsmanship, this is a dark green chert stone tool used for skinning and slicing, hand-knapped into a thin ovoid with uniformly sharp edges. During this time period, weather conditions called the Neolithic Subpluvial meant that the Sahara was a green, fertile landscape, and cultures that produced rock art flourished during this time period. The people who lived here had plentiful game to hunt and lived in a place with savannahs and woodlands in which they could have a sustainable hunter-gatherer lifestyle. These people also produced some of the oldest pottery in the world and, from about 5000 BCE, had domesticated cattle, sheep, and goats. Size: 2.95 W x 3.5 H (7.5 cm x 8.9 cm), 5 H (12.7 cm) on included custom stand.
