Description: | A fragment of a bronze axe head dating to the Bronze Age. The wedge shaped blade and part of the body of the axe head survive. The fragment is hollow; the surface of the axe head is pitted. The axe head appears to have been miscast rather than broken. S. Worrell writes: It is probable that this is a socketed axehead of late Bronze Age date, although without an image it is impossible to confirm this. | 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: | -2150
