5 arrowheads of the Saharan Aterian culture some 60.000y ago. 

These people where the famous hunters of the time and used to hunt big game in what was then still a lush savanna/steppe. During following millennia it became more and more difficult to survive the drier land and with the animals, the tribes also disappeared. 

These stone tools, hunting tools, are the last witnesses of that great epoch.
