Made in Mali near the Tenere Desert, but purportedly found in the Faiyum Valley of Egypt, dating to about 7000 to 5000 BC. Knapped stone implement.

As well as a distinctive Epipalaeolithic industry, it has some of the earliest evidence in Egypt of agricultural activities. 4-1/2"H x 1-3/4"W, 178g. Custom stand.
