Title |
Palaeolithic handaxe |
||
Description |
English: A small sub-cordate handaxe, iron-stained a generally deep orange-brown colour, with some underlying grey/yellow showing through at removal points. There appears to a very small patch of cortex remaining on the (probably) ventral face; the object is otherwise covered in removals. The distal end is squared off, presumably an old break to a pointed tip, but of antiquity as it is as stained as the rest of the artefact. The proximal end appear deliberately flattened. The sides curve to a maximum width from the base; from the widest point it tapers gradually to a width of c. 20mm at the point of break. There is some slight battering to the sides. |
