Description
Northern Europe, Early Bronze Age, ca. 2000 to 1500 BCE. A large axe head with an elongated body, an curved blade edge, a stocky butt end, and a carved-out hafting hole near the back.

A lengthy wooden handle would have been slotted through the hafting hole and secured with tightly-bound strands of reed or leather. Size: 8.75" L x 2.75" W (22.2 cm x 7 cm).
