EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable Neolithic flint arrowhead, known as C014 / 1021. Dating back approximately 8,000 to 10,000 years ago, this stone-age artifact was discovered in Mauritania, West Africa. The arrowhead's intricate design and sharpness exemplify the advanced craftsmanship of our early human ancestors. Against a striking black background, the finger-shaped arrowhead stands out with its meticulously carved details. Held delicately by a Caucasian adult hand, it serves as a tangible connection to our ancient past. This single fragment offers insight into the tools and weapons utilized by African hominids during this era. The photograph not only highlights the beauty of this archaeological find but also provides valuable information for anthropology and paleontology enthusiasts alike. Its presence evokes curiosity about prehistoric civilizations and their way of life. As we examine this neolithic relic closely, we are reminded of humanity's continuous quest for knowledge about our origins. It is through such discoveries that we gain deeper understanding of early humans' resourcefulness and adaptability in their environment. Javier Trueba skillfully captures the essence of this historical treasure through his lens while Science Photo Library presents it to us as an invaluable piece of our collective heritage.
