Description: | Fragment of a polished stone axe of Neolithic date (3500 BC - 2100 BC). Length 53mm, width 60mm and 24mm thick. Weight 107.59g.This fragment forms the butt end of the implement and is symmetrical in plan. The whole surface is finely polished. The transverse break appears to be old. Curiously, along the junction of the break with one of the faces is a 14mm length of re-polish. The purpose of the re-polishing is unclear as it does not seem to have a specific function.
