Description: | A cast bronze socket fragment from the mouth of a socketed axehead. Measuring 28mm in length and 27mm in width. There is a double mouth moulding with a rounded angle in between the surviving face and the side. There are no clear hammer breakage marks and all the breaks appear to be ancient. All faces are badly affected by invasive corrosion with numerous pocks and areas of surface flaking, which are pale green. Surviving surfaces are patinated dark green-brown. This fragment is from a socketed axehead of standard late Bronze Age form. | 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
