Description: | A bronze fragment from the mouth of a cast socket probably from a socketed axehead. The external casting seam is somewhat askew, possibly as a result of twisting due to deliberate breakage. All breaks appear to be ancient and there is a recent plough? mark on the inner face. The fragment has a dark brown/green patina. It was almost certainly from a Late Bronze Age 'founders' hoard. | 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
