Description: | Early Bronze Age short-flanged axe of Kirtomy type, with parallel and high flanges hammered or bent over on each side to contain the (no longer existent haft). Hammer marks are clearly visible. The blade is triangular with a slight curve outwards at the edge. Rounded butt, shallow stop and almost imperceptible on one side due to corrosion/ organic matter. Although surface corrosion and battered edge, still in fairly robust condition. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Hinds, Katie - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
