A BRACELET and a sickle made of stone are among recent
archaeological finds that may shed light on the dark age of Cypriot
archaeology between the earliest evidence of human presence on the
island at 10,000 BC and the appearance of the first villages from
around 8,200 BC.

This refers to "stone sickle blades" not "stone sickles". I suspect this actually refers to small triangular stone teeth (blades) fixed by bitumen or gum in a wooden sickle.
