Description: | The blade end of the axe remains. The blade is curved asymmetrically, however the blade edge is abraded. The axe has broken allowing the terminal of the socket to be seen. The broken edge around the socket has a patina suggesting it was broken in antiquity. The majority of the surface of the axe is covered with a patina which varies slightly in colour from light green to dark green. P. Watson comments the axe is noticeably smaller than other examples. | Format: | text/html | License: | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/ | Publisher: | The Portable Antiquities Scheme | Rights holder: | The Portable Antiquities Scheme | Subjects: | archaeology | Temporal: | -1000
