Object type: SOCKETED AXEHEAD
Broad period: BRONZE AGE
County: Pembrokeshire
Workflow stage: Published

Object type: FLAT AXEHEAD
Broad period: BRONZE AGE
Workflow stage: Published
Copper alloy axe head with a narrow butt end and flared cutting edge. It has a sub-triangular notch missing from one corner of the cutting edge where it has broken off, suggesting use and wear and tear. There is a small depression along one of the flared edges, it is uncertain whether this due to use or an accident in the casting. It is covered in a very rough green patina which has many small nodules and bumps possibly from the casting.
