Description: | A small Neolithic axehead made of dark brown flint. It is drop-shaped in plan and sub oval in section. The bulb of percussion is not visible, but the flake removal is clearly visible. There is some damage at the butt end. It is possible that the axe was once much larger and that following damage the axe was re-knapped to keep it in use as a tool. The axe is now 58.84mm long, 30.58mm wide, 14.76mm thick and weighs 25.38g. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | McDonald, Caroline - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
