Prehistoric Senegal 5: Faleme






We have moved on to eastern Senegal in our documentation of prehistoric stone tools.  The rock varieties used are markedly different than here along the coast, reflecting a completely different geology.  The Faleme River marks the border between Senegal and Mali.  

For the complete collection of photographs, see BOT (Gallery 11).  

Many thanks to Mr. Pryce, Damir and Will for assisting.  As always, thank you to Archaeology Lab Manager, Mr. Camara, for his continuing support, and willingness to respond to our many questions.
