Rock shelter near Bamako in Mali, West Africa, containing a microlithic and harpoon industry. The crude stone industry was accompanied in the second phase by barbed bone harpoon heads. The site may indicate a westerly representative of the heterogeneous complex of harpoon-fishing adaptations which is attested in the southern Sahara between the 8th-3rd millennia BC. Economy for the first phase was fishing, mollusks, and hunting; for the second it was mainly hunting and gathering.
