Neolithic Axe Head

Description

This polished axe head may have been used for purely ceremonial purposes because it does not have a useful cutting edge. A great deal of effort has evidently been expended to obtain the attractive finish. Size: 118 mm x 50 mm Location found: Upper Killeyan, the Oa. NR282414
