Comments:This is a very large disc, which, perhaps on account of its size, is irregularly cut. It has chipped edges. The central hole is drilled from both asides and polished smooth to display the stone colour. Although considerable care has gone into working the material, its finish is not as accomplished as that of the previous example (342) [2014,AsiaLoan,1.206]. See Rawson 1995, p.134, cat.no.4.4. Neolithic. Diameter 344mm.
