I acquired this from Malta’s Museum of Archeology.  If you know anything about Malta’s Temple Period (4100 – 2500 BC), you will know that this replica pre-dates the pyramids and Stonehenge.  The actual piece is remarkable!  And, so is the Museum which is setup to replicate the background for artwork of its time.
