Description: | Mouth fragment of Late Bronze Age axehead with rib decoration (at least three). It measures 25.40 x 26.23 x 4.23mm and weighs 11.29g. The fragment is curving in profile and comprises part of the face and part of the side of a round-mouthed socketed axehead. The surface is rather silvery in appearance suggesting an inclusion of tin in the bronze. At the side the lip is no more than a wide rib, but above the face it projects 5.4mm. The break runs across the ribs so it is impossible to tell whether they ended in pellets. The break is rather jagged in places and ancient. | 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: | -1150
