Description: | An flint Acheulian handaxe of stained orange-brown flint dating to the Lower Palaeolithic. It has a rounded butt end, fairly straight sides, and an asymmetrical tip. The object has a shallow S-shaped profile. It is covered by removals, particularly along its edges. However, one of the faces, presumably the dorsal, has been left partly cortical at the butt end, extending towards the tip. The removals have been smoothed by water action. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Webley, Robert - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
