Description: | This polished stone axe was found in Langdale, Cumbria. It is very smooth and well shaped. Such axes were made by striking flakes off a chosen piece of stone to form a roughly shaped axe. This was then ground with another stone, until the surface was polished and one end was sharp. | License: | http://www.thebowesmuseum.org.uk/terms/ | Rights holder: | The Bowes Museum | Subjects: | 1150 | Source: | Bowes-OAI | Identifier: | http://www.thebowesmuseum.org.uk/collect... | Go to resource |
