Description: | Complete Neolithic polished axe. The axe is wedge shaped and a pointed oval in cross section. There are no side facets. The axe tapers from cutting edge to the butt end, which has been thinned out. Approximately two thirds of the way down the axe both sides have been slightly notched, probably indicating where it was hafted. The whole artefact has a mottled light orangey-brown colour, with patches of a lighter creamy-brown. | 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
