The other remains of everyday use common to both the phases in varying degrees are: ground and in some cases polished stone tools such as axes, adzes, chisels, wedges; stone hammers, pounders and boat-shaped querns [6.19]; parallel-sided blades largely made on chert and chalcedony, microliths being only a few; and well-ground bone points and chisels. Some interesting objects are terracotta solid figurines, mostly bulls and birds. The animals that were used essentially for food are largely the cattle of large and small size, sheep or goats, antelopes and rodents. Skeletal remains of dogs are also present.
