Description: | An incomplete flint Acheulian handaxe of a white-grey flint dating to the Lower Palaeolithic. It has a rounded asymmetrical butt end and tapers gradually towards the other end where the tip is now missing. The object has a shallow S-shaped profile. It is covered by removals, particularly along its edges. These have been somewhat smoothed by water action. There are large areas of white patination, with underlying grey, with much of one of the faces stained by iron. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Webley, Robert - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
