Description: | Late Bronze Age looped palstave with plain, narrow blade and slight splay to the cutting edge. It has a straight stop-ridge and is characteristic of the products of the north Wales industry. Similar examples have come from Llanbeblig and Great Orme's Head (Caernarfonshire) and Maentwrog (Merionethshire). It is also represented in the Guilsfield Hoard (Savory, H N, 1980). The loop is missing, probably lost in antiquity and it is suffering from bronze disease. It has also been damaged since its discovery. | 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 | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Jeff Spencer | Identifier: | http://www.finds.org.uk/database/artefac... | Language: | en-GB | Format: | text/html | Go to resource |
