Neolithic stone wristguard
Fragmentary oblong pendant, perforated at the complete end. The perforation was executed by boring from either side producing an hour-glass section. The outer marking of the perforation is 3mm below the upper edge and approximately midway between the sides. The faces and edges were ground and then polished, one face more so than the other. The lower part of the pendant is missing.
