Description

  • Foto Number: SAH-564

In addition to the blades and lamellae from which knives, needles, scrapers, drills and hundreds of other tools were made, there were also polished stone utensils, and the Sahara as a whole was rich in stone polishing masters. There are not only stone rings, which were bracelets - provided the light range allows the arm to pass through them -, club heads or weight stones of burial sticks, but also pots, hoes, chisels and arrowheads, whose fine polish still amazes us today (IFAN Collection, Dakar, Senegal) – 1969
