    The vast majority of flake tools from the Neolithic of Capsian Tradition of Africa are a fraction of the size of this massive example!  This is one of only a handful of flake tools this size we have ever seen in 31 years of handling this material.  This is one of THE FINEST examples of a large Capsian Neolithic handled pick.  It was made from tabular flint and is complete with ingenious design and flaking to the large flint piece.  The pick has an amazingly well-designed grip with ergonomic grooves for holding.  It shows original flint cortex on some surfaces as well as use wear and wind polishing.  The amazingly narrow tip could have been used for digging or even a weapon. 

    This EXCEPTIONAL example is UNBROKEN and AS MADE!  Featuring wind polish and a natural glossy finish from millennia of long term exposure to the desert.  You could not ask for more impressive and top grade specimen from this African Neolithic culture!  Of the highest degree workmanship, complete and intact.  Like all AUTHENTIC specimens, this tool shows original mineral sediments still impacted in the hinge fractures and micro-crevices.  NO RESTORATION, NO REPAIR.
