Description
Stone adze. Basalt or greywacke. Would have been polished and smooth at one stage but is now chipped and rough over the surface. The blade end is chipped along the blade edge. The butt end would always have been lightly pitted. The butt is narrower than the blade. The corners are rounded. The blade has a slight curve. Adhesive marks on the same side as the accession number. There is a rectangular sticker with the word basalt written on it.
