Flint Tools From the Vicinity of Dashli, Obverse Jauzjan Province.

1976
Three flint projectile points: Obverse. Treasure seekers finds. During the 1960s treasure hunting for ancient artifacts became a highly popular weekend outing avidly pursued by many citizens in Mazar-i-Sharif. Tombs at Dashlil's cemetery were extensively pillaged of artifacts that were then sold in bazaars in Mazar-i-Sharif and on the sidewalks of downtown Kabul.
