Ancient Egypt, Chalcolithic Period, Bronze Age II, ca. 2700 to 2500 BCE. A beautiful mace head exhibiting an apple-shaped form, all hand-carved from honey-yellow alabaster with opaque white bands.

The white banding runs vertically to the head's orientation, making this an attractive example of ancient stone weaponry!
