Early Bronze Age stone axe hammer
With flat faces and broad rounded butt demarcated (at rather less than half the length of the implement) by pronounced shoulders from the triangular blade. The sides are strongly concave and in side view the implement tapers slightly from the butt to the almost semi-circular edge. The large hour-glass perforation is just to the rear of the shoulders; in front of it on each face there is a tongue-shaped shallow depression. The axe-hammer is slighly assymetrical in plan.
