Click on picture for greater detail.

This Danish Mesolithic Core Flint Axe is made of a light gray colored fine grain flint with some oxidation spots and a nice old polished patina sheen. There is a small amount of cortex visible on one side. Danish Core axes were heavier and narrower that the older Disc Axes and were shaped all over by multi-directional flaking. Core Axes (known in Danish as Kærneøkser) are the second oldest type of Danish axe. This axe would have been used by hunter-gatherer primary as a heavy-duty woodworking tool such as felling trees, clearing land, and wood fashioning. Since Core Axes were chipped from flint rather than polished, they had a relatively rough, durable edge and could be re-sharpened. They were tightly lashed into wooden or antler hafts to absorb shock during heavy impacts. This artifact measures 111mm long, 41mm wide, and 38mm at its thickest point. Flake scars are prevalent on all sides of this artifact. The workmanship is very fine.
