Here's a pair of Thinbutted Danish Neolithic Axes dating to late 4th mill. BC.
Thinbutted axes were the preferred tool for clearing land, as the Neolithic civilisation came in the need of fields for cultivation.
Both axes in this pair are nice specimens from this development, and have probably contributed to gaining new ground for early Danish agriculture.
The axes measure 14 & 15 cm each, (c. 6 inches) but it is not unlikely that they were larger originally. ...
