Description: | Fragment of a polished greenstone axe, probably a Great Langdale product. Only the cutting end of the axe remains which is lozenge shaped in cross-section. The cutting edge is flared and has well patinated old breaks probably made during use rather than later damage. The beginnings of a side facet one one side only is visible just before the break. | 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: | -4000
