Description: | A miniature, possibly votive, copper alloy axe-shaped pendant. The pendant has an integral loop that has iron corrosion adhering to the peak, suggesting it has been in contact with iron. A rib around the neck of the loop separates the loop from the rest of the object - the loop is at opposing angles to the axe, resulting in the axe lying flat when suspended.
The axe pendant measures 22.46mm long, 12.61mm wide and the neck measures 6.06mm diameter. It weighs 2.2 gms. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Byard, Anni - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
