Description: | Cast Bronze Age flanged axe from the Arreton Down period, dating to c.1700- 1500 BC.It is very worn and the blade and flanges are not complete. In plan it is almost rectangular as the blade and terminal are so worn. In the side view the flanges still protrude. The patina is mostly brown due to mud but there are patches of light green which is indicative of corrosion.
