I have about 900 to 1,000 neolithic tools and found in a part of the world, where I think they should not be in that place. Your e-mail is not available so I can not send pic’s. In my opinion, some of these tools are works of art. To give you some idea of what i have,eg:- axe heads, hammers, pestles, mortars, babies dummeis(made of stone), jewellery,spoons, knives and some thing I don’t know what they were used for and that’s just to name a few.
