Axe Axehead
Identifier
ABDUA:14335
Description
Polished stone axe head, with pointed butt, flat cutting-edge and a flaring shape. Oval cross-section, narrow flat facet along each edge. This suggests that it has been used then re-sharpened and re-polished, perhaps to retain its appearance as a valued object.
