Title |
AXE |
||
Description |
English: Approximately 2/3rds of a fully ground and polished flint axe with a few remnants of deep flake scars remaining visible in the surface: - of patinated white flint with rusty iron scrapes from agricultural machinery, the coarse inclusions within the flint appearing pale grey. The cutting edge has broken transversely in antiquity probably from use, leaving the usual "plunging" flake scar to one face from the force of the break, there appears to be an unsuccessful attempt to reshape this edge; several short and hinging flakes have been struck, but the awkward angles have prevented any useful flakes being removed. The butt is also damaged by successive removals of flakes, this may have been from attempts to remove the axehead from its haft during its lifetime. The only recent damage to this axe (apart from the iron scrapes) is a small loss to the old break, this shows the original colour of the flint to have been dark grey. Neolithic, 4,000 to 2,350 BC. |
