Description: | On one side catno. is noted, along with the inscription "Saveroch, St. Ola, Orkney".
Old, worn rectangular label with the inscription "Saveroch, St. Ola". Saveroch, St. Ola, Orkney, Scotland MANU unknown This longish, rectangular stone axe head seems to have been worn quite badly on one side, perhaps it has not been polished on both sides. The axe-head would have been attached with string and/or some form of glue to the wooden handle, making sure that the axe would not fall apart when used. | License: | http://www.hmag.gla.ac.uk/spirit/rights/ | Publisher: | Hunterian Museum and Art Gallery, University of Glasgow | Rights holder: | Hunterian Museum and Art Gallery, University of Glasgow | Subjects: | STONE_SCOTLAND : EM : CURSITER_PROJECT : ACLARKE : AXEHEAD : | Source: | Hunterian Museum | Creator: | Hunterian Museum and Art Gallery, University of Glasgow | Identifier: | http://www.huntsearch.gla.ac.uk/cgi-bin/... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
