32 average, common-grade Sahara Neolithic points and tools
Lot Description: This is a diverse group of 32 average. Common-grade Sahara desert found tools. The lot consist of all the main types including stemmed. Triangular, ovate, and unifacial points as well as other tools. Most of these tools are bifacially work, a few a earlier unifaciallyworked tools from the Mesolithic or early Neolithic. They are mostly from the southwestern Sahara(northern Mauritania/Mali) the unifacial tools are from Morocco. Th ese tools were used to hunt and process water fowl and other game in the now dried up lakes of the Sahara 4.000 years ago. The shortest tool is 5/8th inch long(15 mm) A smaller triangle. The longest tool is 1 5/8th inches(41 mm) An older unifaical tool. The condition is average. Most are intact, however many have small ancient ding, as can be expected with working tools. These small tools were used ... moreand lost or discarded when they became too small to use. See picture for details. The color in hand. Is better than the picture indicates. The natural light somehow washes out the color or maybe it's my photography skills. These relics are representative of everyday tools. Many of these tools were used until they could no longer function well because they were to small to re-sharpen at which point they were discarded others were lost in the hunt. A nice diverse sampling of Sahara tools! Background information is provided with my 2-page essay on the subject. Which will be included. Neolithic populations living near now dried lakes and rivers in what is now the Sahara desert; used these tools in the hunt for and processing of waterfowl and small game. The end of the Ice Age resulted in global climate changes which stopped the rains and forced these Neolithic(New Stone Age) peoples into new modes of existence. Either agriculture which was just beginning at the end of the Neolithic, or a nomadic animal husbandry mode of existence. The New Stone Age was a very dynamic era giving rise to agriculture, pottery, and permanent settlements, all of which were milestones in humank
