AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Neolithic polished flint axe in good condition
Timeline 8000-2000 BCE
12.0 cm x 5.0 x 2.0 cm

I bought the axe circa 1995 at the annual big market in Münster (Germany)

From my fifteenth year up to and including my seventieth year I have built up a large collection of Bronze Age and Stone Age objects in all kinds of forms, including Lausitz pots. All of them from Western Europe and bought from private individuals, at auctions, collectors fairs, antique shops and sometimes received. I am now 84 and it is time to say goodbye to my collection.

I have no authenticity certificates or receipts for the objects and can only say that I obtained the objects legally
If in doubt, please do not buy

Attention!!!
I do not ship outside Europe
