Description: | Copper alloy chisel. Cast rectangular section billet with one flat end and one bevelled end. The arises are uniformly crisp, as is the cutting edge, though this is chipped on one corner. The object is very slightly flared between butt and blade; the width at the former is 9mm, and 11.6mm at the latter. The thickness is greatest towards the butt. The good condition of the object may suggest its recent disturbance from a sealed context. Suggested date: Late Bronze Age, 1000-800 BC.Length: 68.2mm, Width: 11.6mm, Thickness: 8mm, Weight: 46.04gms.
