Description: | Small plain socketed bronze axe with single loop. Part of blade end missing. Heavily hammered on both faces near end of socket void. Both faces have punched (?) groups of marks, possibly made by a chisel-ended tracer/awl (parallels exist in the Levington Hoard, Suffolk: Pendleton 1999, 49). Crescentic blade edge affected by corrosion. Other patches of pale green invasive corrosion near blade, otherwise deep brown patina and large area of untarnished copper alloy. Surviving width 39 mm. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Geake, Helen - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
