Arbor Low

Circle henge

Arbor Low (Circle henge) by Blingo_von_Trumpenst Arbor Low outer circle stone looking inwards.
Green speckled French serpentine point butted insanely polished "ritual" axe (approx 4700BC)
This is not just a special axe - it is sensational in every respect. No signs of any wear or hafting marks. Beautiful condition. Found Gargas, Pyrenees, France in 1923, previously in Paris museum (sold by them in the 1950s). This axe fascinates museum curators all over Britain . . . Enjoy.
