Object type: TRANCHET AXEHEAD
Broad period: MESOLITHIC
County: Wiltshire
Workflow stage: Published
A Mesolithic (8300-4500 BC) flint tranchet axehead, measuring 136.59x45.52x30.83mm and weighing 190.02g.
The axehead is plano-convex in form and struck from a low-grade, browny-orange flint with less-silicious patches and thick cortex (which makes it difficult to flake). The cutting edge is rather more diagonally-flaked than transversely-flaked.
The axehead is roughly struck with large flake scars. The sides and butt-end are steeply flaked.
