Description: | A Lower Palaeolithic handaxe. The axe is a pointed oval and is made from a grey mottled flint, now patinated ochre. A little modern damage on one edge reveals the original colour of the flint. A small fossil sponge is embedded in one side. | 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: | -600
