Axe 2

 Stone hand axe  
  • Green stone, possibly jade, with much wear in fissures and calcification.
  • Hole drilled from both sides, very irregular with wear grooves at top rim - perhaps from rope or binding?
  • Type of stone uncertain - appears fibrous in places, suggesting jade like material.
  • This piece would appear to be a beautifully shaped hand axe that fits the palm nicely.
  • 15.6 x 12.84 x 3.56 cm. -  .678 kg.
