Description: | A fragment of a small copper-alloy flat axehead in an early Bronze Age style. The axe is possibly a chisel axe used for fine carpentry work, but is could also be votive. The axe has almost parallel edges, with a central spine on both faces, resulting in chamfered edges.
The metal is mottled and heavily pitted, it is a mid brownish-green in colour. There are no signs of re-working. | Subjects: | Viking | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Andrews-Wilson, Liz - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
