Title
??Bronze Age unidentifed object
Description
English: Fragment of ??Bronze Age copper alloy object, consisting of one face and part of a side at 90° to it. This edge is triangular in shape, its edges or ?'breaks' a rather clean break. At the opposite side of the face the metal is bent slightly backwards as though this break is where another side extended. This would give a width of 28mm across the front and a give the object a socketed function.
No patina remains and the metal is a light green in colour with much black covering the surface, ?sooting. Although the metal does not necessarily have a Bronze Age quality to it, the shape is indicative ??possibly of a hammer or other straight sided socketed tool.
Measures 52x28xmax6mm (one edge is much thicker) and weighs 53.86g.
Depicted place (County of findspot) Wiltshire
Date between 1200 BC and 701 BC
